If this works you can directly proceed with fsck and mount, as you suggested.
But it will likely fail with "device busy" unless it is in single-user mode.

In single-user mode and OK prompt you'll loose remote connection e.g. ssh connection. So make sure you access the system through a console (ILO/ALOM board, serial console, grahical console, etc.).
You can shutdown -y -i 0 -g 0 to the OK prompt and then type boot -s.
I have tested the below scenario before deploying on Production machine:

When i try to unmount /var partition after booting with boot -s from OK prompt

Then i get

Code:
umount /var
umount: /var busy

Then run fsck

Code:
fsck -Y -F ufs /var
/dev/md/dsk/d140 IS CURRENTLY MOUNTED READ/WRITE.
CONTINUE?  yes

** /dev/md/dsk/d140
** Currently Mounted on /var
** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes
** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames
** Phase 3a - Check Connectivity
** Phase 3b - Verify Shadows/ACLs
** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts
** Phase 5 - Check Cylinder Groups
FILESYSTEM MAY STILL BE INCONSISTENT.
27191 files, 3092944 used, 5161717 free (2965 frags, 644844 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation)

***** PLEASE RERUN FSCK ON UNMOUNTED FILE SYSTEM *****

Then rebooted the machine and it was fine, but not sure why i am unable to unmount /var when booting into Single user mode.

Please assist.

NAME
fsck, fsck1 - perform file system consistency check SYNOPSIS
fsck [-aclmrs] [device] ... OPTIONS
-a Automatically repair inconsistencies -c Check and list only the specified i-nodes -l List the files and directories in the filesytem -r Prompt user for repairs if inconsistencies are found -s List the superblock of the file system EXAMPLES
fsck /dev/hd4 # Check file system on /dev/hd4 fsck -a /dev/at0 # Automatically fix errors on /dev/at0 fsck -l /dev/fd0 # List the contents of /dev/fd0 fsck -c 2 3 /dev/hd3 # Check and list /dev/hd3 i-nodes 2 & 3 DESCRIPTION
Fsck performs consistency checks on the file systems which reside on the specified devices. Fsck1 is an alternate version for use on obso- lete V1 file systems. When either the -a or -r flags are given, the file system will be repaired if errors are found. Before running fsck on a mounted file system, it must first be unmounted. Trying to repair a mounted file system is dangerous and should not be attempted. To repair the root file system (which cannot be unmounted), first type CTRL-F9 at the console to kill any and all processes. Log back in as root, type sync to force any buffered changes to disk, run fsck on the root file system and immediately reboot the computer by typing reboot. It is necessary to kill all processes before repairing the root file system to prevent them from modifying any disk blocks while fsck is running. This is only necessary for the root file system, any other file system can simply be unmounted before it is checked. SEE ALSO
