First of all, it's bad practice to put NFS mounts in /etc/fstab
Use automount rather.

Why ? Cause network issues or nfs server issue can cause your entire machine to hang on boot.

For your problems actions you can take is :
0. Check NFS server. Problems related are probably due to misconfiguration on server for your client.
1. Use lsof with grep to identify which process are being used on sv55adm, to kill them
2. fuser -cku /mountpoint
3. If everything else fails, stop nfs client and umount (other nfs mountpoints will also stop working.)

You can also use bdf -t vxfs to display just vxfs filesystems before issue is resolved.

       nfs - Network File System

Description
       The Network File System (NFS) is a specific file system implemented under the Generic File System Interface, as described in

       NFS  provides  support  for sharing ordinary files and directories in a multivendor networking environment.  The system administrator for a
       file server machine makes a file system available for remote access by placing the name of the file system to be shared in an export  list.
       The  administrator for a client machine can import a file system from any server machine that has granted access permission to the request-
       ing client machine.  A complete exported file system or any subtree of an exported file system can be imported by the client machine.  Once
       imported, users on the client machine can access files in the remote file system as though they were local files.
