its not really that was the problem. Even I have solved the problem, but
this was due to I was using IP address in hostname.e1000g0 file instead of
hostname. I have just changed it to server name, it worked fine for utadm -A
subnet. After running the script I have changed it back to IP address so
that IP address should not change across the reboots.
Cheers
