Error Dopping Temp DB Space

I am encountering an error when attempting to drop a temporary db space.
The reason I am dropping it is because the disk that it resides on went bad.

Solaris 9
IDS 9.40.FC5

Here is the output from onspaces:

$onspaces -c -d dbs_temp -t -p
/export/home/informix/dbspaces/link_disk3_1 -o 100 -s 2000000

Space already exists.

$onspaces -d dbs_temp

WARNING: Dropping a DBspace.
Do you really want to continue? (y/n)y
Cannot drop the Space.
ISAM error: no such DBspace

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
