Hi Karan, there is no passphrase reset function. However you can set multiple passphrases with LUKS and can, e.g., put a recovery passphrase in a specific slot. You can then make a header backup and store it in a database, in order to be able to reinstall that recovery passphrase. With ssh as root to the laptops, you can do this remotely and, as allways on Linux/Unix, scripted. There really is not need for a special "tool".
