Additionally, you cannot manually start stop the actual address space yourself.
Here are the notes I have for starting and stopping NFS client:
Stop NFS client#
The z/OS NFS client is started when the z/OS UNIX file system is initialized
and is persistent until z/OS UNIX is stopped. To stop the z/OS NFS client
gracefully the system operator can use the modify operator command omvs,stoppfs
specifying the NFS client, as follows:
F OMVS,STOPPFS=NFS
You will respond to the "xx BPXI078D STOP OF NFS REQUESTED. REPLY 'Y' TO
PROCEED. ANY OTHER REPLY WILL CANCEL THIS STOP." which shuts down the NFS
client.
Restart #
We use a SYS1.PARMLIB(BPXPRMNF) that can be used to restart the NFS client if
it is stopped.
SETOMVS RESET=(NF)
Which contains
EDIT SYS1.PARMLIB(BPXPRMNF) - 01.00 Columns 0
Command ===> Scroll

Thanks Lizette -
Here is the PARMS that I have used in BPXPRMxx -
FILESYSTYPE TYPE(NFS)
ENTRYPOINT(GFSCINIT)
PARM('biod(6),Bufhigh(128),nfsv4domain(xxx.xxxx.com)')
ASNAME(MVSNFSC,'SUB=MSTR')
Here is the JCL for started task MVSNFSC -
