How can I unmount an nfs-mounted partition from the client?
umount /path/to/mount
If you do that before shutting the server down, it should work as long as nothing is using it. I think you can set the bg option in fstab to make things carry on trying in the background if it's not mountable. See "man 5 nfs" for a list of options.
