On Junos and Junos OS Evolved platforms due to the mgd(Management Daemon) process not releasing commit lock, CLI users cannot change the configuration. CLI users cannot access configuration mode in this state. There is no service impact due to this issue.
Router terminal reported below error while try to login from master RE with cli command:
labrouter#cli

We recovered MGD after killed mgd PID’s which got stuck in /var/rundb/commit.lck
1. fstat /var/rundb/commit.lck
2. kill -9 <pid-value>
where <pid-value> is obtained from output of step 1
Example:
We recovered MGD after killed below mgd PID’s.
fstat /var/run/db/commit.lck
root@exr01:~ # fstat /var/run/db/commit.lck
