so i logged into the machine, cleared the service, and it came right up.
once the system repository is in the maintenance state you have to fix
the problem and either disable the service or clear it manually. the
zone tools will only try to online the service, which will fail if it's
already in the maintenance state.
i don't know why it initially failed to start. (the system repository
does depend on the autofs service.) perhaps coupe was temporarily
inaccessible? or autofs returned an error? i'm not sure...
looking at the sysrepo code, the error message could be generated for a
lot of reasons. i'll file a bug to get more detailed error messaging
from the sysrepo in this failure case.
