login with a super admin account and check if you have any unpublished sessions. Once one is found, take it over and publish.

Hi,

thank you for the help. i actually solved it with this link here:

https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Management/How-to-release-lock-from-objects-in-R80-10/td-p/6969#

with this command:

psql_client cpm postgres -c "SELECT objid, name, dlesession, cpmitable, subquery1.lockingsessionid, subquery1.operation FROM dleobjectderef_data, (SELECT lockedobjid, lockingsessionid, operation FROM locknonos) subquery1 WHERE subquery1.lockedobjid = objid and not deleted and dlesession >=0;"

Then, delete the object from locknonos db-table to release it.

psql_client cpm postgres -c "delete from locknonos where lockedobjid='[objid-from previous command]';"

cpstop;cpstart to restart the services.

AND ALL WORKS FINE!!!

Great to see you have your answer, but this is not a recommended way. It may break legitimate sessions, if applied during someone else making changes.

You should always try to clean abandoned sessions and make sure nobody is connected to the management server before applying this approach.
