Simple, it's the configuration lock. Our configuration subsystem is not
able to handle correct concurrent writes,
or reads during writes, so there is a whole instance read/write lock that
is taken every time you use the rest
api and the user interface, nothing can be done while the lock is in place

If you want, you can disable it using the system variable
GeoServerConfigurationLock.enabled,
-DGeoServerConfigurationLock.enabled=true
but of course we cannot predict what will happen to the configuration if
you do that.
