I don't know why the service is being restarted on you (you might look in 
the logfile that's shown in the output of svcs -xv for clues if you didn't 
initiate the restart), but as part of nfs's stop, it unshares all 
filesystems, which I've seen take a while.

You can see what it's up to when things are hung by:
   $ ptree -c `pgrep nfs-server`

If it's hanging out in sharemgr stop, you might want to talk with the 
folks over on the NFS alias why that is.
