MVPLooks like your version is hit with the bug - https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K17368
I'd suggest you to see if you can do a mcpd forceload and then do a reboot to see if the box comes up properly and loads the config. Try your luck. If not engage F5 support.

CirrusThanks Jaikumar for reply, will
upgrading it to stable version fix the issue ? Currently i am in 11.6 and it’s BIG-IP 4000 series.If so then which will be the good version to upgrade.

I see your planning to repurpose this box by setting it with default config. If I were you surely I'll try my options with above. Since the solution is just a point fix, it should be an easy upgrade.
Also some suggestions, you can go to grub menu and see if there's other images and boot with them. Then install new image in your desiring volume and boot back. It's all troubleshooting you gotta to do to resolve. Options are many !!!

i degrade it to older version, which was there in box and rebooted it. It was stable for time being and when I reboot it to test the issue it again went to “Configuration Utility Restarting”.
Not sure either issue with box or version.
Box is 4000 series and Version is 11.6

Were you able to install the stable version as listed on the article I shared. Install it and boot from the image. Then try your formatting, see if it resolves.
