I would first check who owns the directory and files ls -ld /opt/bmc/ARSystem/bin/ ls -l /opt/bmc/ARSystem/bin/
This will tell you the user who owns the files and directory. You need to stop ( in order to get the .lck file released) and then start the ARsystem. root user is super user and able to stop/start services no matter who owns the above files/directory. Hope this helps.
