Problem removing soft partitions

I'm hoping someone can help me out with this one. I had a disk go bad
in my Solaris system, which had soft paritions on it, created by Solaris
Volume Manager. I am trying to remove these soft partitions, but when I
try doing so, I encounter the following error:

# metaclear d22
metaclear: tsunami: d22: error opening device under soft partition

a metastat d22 shows the following:

d22: Soft Partition
    Device: c1d1s0
    State: Deleting
    Size: 209715200 blocks (100 GB)
        Device Start Block Dbase Reloc
        c1d1s0 8064 No Yes

        Extent Start Block Block count
             0 8065 209715200

Device Relocation Information:
Device Reloc Device ID

It shows some bogus status that its deleting, but it has been like that
for quite a while.

Thanks for any help that can be provided.
