Having a shared /var/lib/nfs make sense with active-standby 
configurations because the nfs servers does not talk with each other, so 
I think it's normal to have instability.

As far as I know, all those operations are handled by the exportfs RA.

I've configured a lot of A/A setup with exportfs without having 
problems. What's the boot order of your resources? Are you sure you're 
removing first of all the IP and then exportfs? I'm asking this because 
one of my problem was about the connections keep opened by the clients 
(i was removing first exportfs).
