I cant say i've ever looked into it myself but id susjest an easy solution would be to have a cron script store run every now and again to ping the servers and change the mounts depending on what the responce is.

also if your backup system is bespoke and can be modified you could use amd and have the script read stored data on nfs server availability so it can decide where to backup the data.
