Currently running 21.4R3-S5.4 that I thought was the newest but apparently not - and now cannot find the page.
Can someone confirm? I don't have a support contract but have an account and can see the newest is from Sept 2022 but it doesn't give a -S verison - only MD5 (which doesn't help the search) of 0dad079c3e4ca1f60fa368e99fc6fd70
Trying to configure a mixed mode chassis of EX4600 and 5 EX4300s.
Recently upgraded from an 18 to 21 version (now 21.4R3-S5.4).
I've made a small amount of commits, but a specific commit (adding vlan tag to an interface-ragen) is causing the commit to fail.
During the commit (which hangs for 5-10 minutes before failing) shows this...

Though recovers to this after...

I've tried all the usual tricks like request system storage cleanup, removed the .schema-cache folders (on each member), even removed the extra juniper.data and .save+ files etc.
This is a copy of the largest files on one switch

The config isn't so big so will attach the whole lot - the changes I am trying to commit is simply...

All I can find online is clearing storage/files, and or upgrading from a bug in 18(?) which these have already been upgraded. Have also started from a zeroize on all boxes (including removing and recreatding /config/vchassis).
