Zone stuck in shutting down state.

One of my zone got stuck while rebooting in shutting down state. I tried following
1. Halt the zone with zoneadm -z zone1 halt
2. kill zoneadmd process for that zone and halt the zone

but none helped me. How can i shut it down and restart it ?

NAME
zoneadmd - zone administration daemon SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/zones/zoneadmd DESCRIPTION
zoneadmd is a system daemon that is started when the system needs to manage a particular zone. Because each instance of the zoneadmd daemon manages a particular zone, it is not unexpected to see multiple zoneadmd daemons running. This daemon is started automatically by the zone management software and should not be invoked directly. The daemon shuts down automati- cally when no longer in use. It does not constitute a programming interface, but is classified as a private interface. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWzoneu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Private | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
