local zone does not boot after halt

Hi all,

yesterday I halted one of my local zones. After some minutes I booted this zone, but the boot did not complete.

After half an hour I canceled the boot by typing ^C. And after that the zone seems to be dead. Each zoneadm command to this zone stucks

and also the ifconfig -a command stucks at the zone's interface.

What can I do to make make the zone running again?

Thanks

The status the stucking zone is ready.

It's zone 'tst' with id 11, see below.

> zoneadm list -cv

ID NAME STATUS PATH

0 globalrunning/

10 saprunning/export/zones/sap

Did you install any patches since the last time you booted that zone? I know that for osme patches it would request user-input at boot regarding NFS4. The zone would then be stuck waiting for a reply before services such as ssh would be started.

Its easy to check by performing a zlogin on the s=zone and checking to see if there is any output on the screen.

Yep, I second that. The answer should be on the console.heinz
