Howsoever, "But its not working" is not an utmost good starting point for an analysis. You should describe exactly what in the current behaviour doesn't fulfill your needs or what the error message(s) be.
I guess the target string is appended to the entry, not replacing the last field's value? So you should provide that value, so the substitute has something to replace:
On top, it is good practice to anchor the search pattern (if possible), here to the start-of-line, to be safe of false positives.
I have to replace a field in one file with a field from other file.
I came across this awk command to replace a field with one string
nawk -F'|' -v OFS='|' '$2="replace"' temp2 > temp3
I need to have something like cut -f2 -d "|" temp1 (a field from other file) instead of 'replace'

Howdy.
I know this is most likely possible using sed or awk or grep, most likely a combination of them together, but how would one go about running a grep like command on a file where you only try to match your pattern to the second field in a line, space delimited?

nologin
NOLOGIN(5) BSD File Formats Manual NOLOGIN(5)NAME
nologin -- disallow logins
DESCRIPTION
Programs such as login(1) disallow logins if the nologin file exists. The programs display the contents of nologin to the user if possible
and interrupt the login sequence. This makes it simple to temporarily prevent incoming logins systemwide.
To disable logins on a per-account basis, investigate nologin(8).
SECURITY
The nologin file is ignored for user root by default.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
The nologin feature is implemented through login.conf(5), which allows to change the pathname of the file and to extend the list of users
exempt from temporary login restriction.
PAM-aware programs can be selectively configured to respect nologin using the pam_nologin(8) module via pam.conf(5).
The nologin file will be removed at system boot if it resides in /var/run and cleanvar_enable is set to ``YES'' in rc.conf(5), which is
default. Therefore system reboot can effectively re-enable logins.
FILES
/var/run/nologin default location of nologin
