Panorama Administrator's Guide
Manage Locks for Restricting Configuration Changes
Locking the candidate or running configuration prevents other administrators from changing the configuration until you manually remove the lock or Panorama removes it automatically (after a commit). Locks ensure that administrators don’t make conflicting changes to the same settings or interdependent settings during concurrent login sessions.
Correct Answer is D
Local Configuration Locks: Local configuration locks are used to prevent changes from being applied to a managed device while a configuration is being edited or committed. These locks can prevent conflicts between local and Panorama configurations.
Manual Unlocking: From Panorama, administrators can manually unlock a device if there are local configuration locks. This is useful when you need to override or clear these locks remotely
In the context of "panorama managed devices" i think a local configuration lock is a lock placed on a firewall config locally, by logging on to it, rather than logging on to panorama.
If any lock placed by another administrator, in panorama or locally on a firewall. Would simply be unlocked by a commit done in panorama by any administrator, it's purpose would be defeated.
B is correct: https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000CltACAS "When a user has a configuration lock, it is not possible to perform a commit or push a policy from Panorama. If the administrator is not available to remove the lock, a device WebGUI or CLI command can be used by a superuser to force the removal of the configuration lock."
A is not correct. You can't perform a commit while a lock is in place, therefore, the lock can't be automatically removed after a commit that you cannot execute.
B is correct. If you trey to push a config to a device with a local local you get the following message:
Details:
. Other administrators are holding device wide config locks.
local locks prevent panorama pushes. they have to be removed by the admin who locked it
