Database is in transition

This issue comes when you tried to make your database offline and during this process you run the cmd sp_who2.There are some transactions in process and you try to make database offline, then you will have to sit with patience while SQL Server successfully abort/commit all transactions on backend and make it offline successfully meanwhile if you will try to access the database then get the msg, "Database is in transition", if you cannot sit with patience then just kill the thread from Activity Monitor where you see the command alter database set flat offline the other option is to restart the sql server, but in case of restart, it will not give you control of database, after restart the database will go in auto recovery mode, but after some minutes and this successful recovery you will be able to do any operation on database.
