Reading MadeInGermany's post#5 I can see that he has a different perception of this problem than Jim and I.
So, questions:
Are both node 1 and node 2 both mounting the filesystem(s) on the NAS via NFS???
What type of NAS is this? Make/model?
Is this NAS intelligent enough to share NFS handles for filesystems AND control all file locking, file read/write, and file contention? If so, the NAS is itself acting as node 1 and your Solaris 9 machines are NFS clients node 2 and node 3, both mounting via NFS which is okay.
Question then is: When the filesystem(s) need checking/correcting, how is that done? Is the NAS capable of creating and formatting filesystem(s) itself, and running integrity checks?
Sorry for all the questions but MadeInGermany's post#5 has got me thinking that Jim and I have perhaps not comprehended the problem from your post#1 due to lack of detail.
Awaiting answers........

UMOUNT(8) BSD System Manager's Manual UMOUNT(8)
NAME
umount -- unmount filesystems
SYNOPSIS
umount [-fv] special | node
umount -a | -A [-fv] [-h host] [-t type]
DESCRIPTION
The umount command calls the unmount(2) system call to remove a special device or the remote node (rhost:path) from the filesystem tree at
the point node. If either special or node are not provided, the appropriate information is taken from the list of filesystems provided by
getfsent(3).
The options are as follows:
-a All the filesystems described via getfsent(3) are unmounted.
-A All the currently mounted filesystems except the root are unmounted.
-f The filesystem is forcibly unmounted. Active special devices continue to work, but all other files return errors if further accesses
are attempted. The root filesystem cannot be forcibly unmounted.
-h host
Only filesystems mounted from the specified host will be unmounted. This option implies the -A option and, unless otherwise speci-
fied with the -t option, will only unmount NFS filesystems.
-t type
Is used to indicate the actions should only be taken on filesystems of the specified type. More than one type may be specified in a
comma separated list. The list of filesystem types can be prefixed with ``no'' to specify the filesystem types for which action
should not be taken. For example, the umount command:
umount -a -t nfs,hfs
umounts all filesystems of the type NFS and HFS.
-v Verbose, additional information is printed out as each filesystem is unmounted.
NOTES
Due to the complex and interwoven nature of Mac OS X, umount may fail often. It is recommended that diskutil(1) (as in, ``diskutil unmount
/mnt'') be used instead.
SEE ALSO
unmount(2), getfsent(3), mount(8), diskutil(1)
HISTORY
A umount command appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.
