Alex,

Sorry you are running into it and the help does not offer much.

AFAIR, this can be used non-interactively. The key is specifying
something called AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD in the passwordfile as:

AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD=user's password

If such a property does not exist in the given passwordfile, asadmin
would prompt you for the password (if interactive flag is set, which
is set by default).

Let me know if that works.
