There's not really a good solution for this one, as indicated, because the password's going to be needed every hour, and I don't think for something like that, that it is reasonable to expect them to type the password in every hour.

I'm thinking a CLI script might be a better way to deal with that, but would encourage discussion on the matter.

OK, so I was thinking about this earlier while out walking.

It occurred to me that it could be done by way of setting each stage to be carried out as a form of imperative scheduled task. That way it wouldn't necessarily require the admin to be present.

Needs more investigation.
