Be sure that you have a virtual IP adress that migrates together with the NFS 
server in the cluster.

Timeout / NFS Server migration is a problem in NFSv3. The server should inform 
the clients that it rebooted and the clients should reclaim their locks.

This locking is much more elegant in NFSv4. So in clustered NFS Server you 
should use v4. See the resource agent description for locking timeouts.

TCP or UDP is just a transport protocol and not important for the problems you 
describe.
