Pressing Stop-A (L1-A) will get you immediately to the bootprompt again,
without finishing services or umounting gracefully [1]. I usually use
'sync' there to prevent disk mount trouble next time, but I'm not sure
whether that does the right thing.
By default, there is no 'Ctrl-Alt-Del' alike key sequence in SunOS.

[1] The openboot prom can be protected with a password, which makes
Stop-A ask for it. If you have physical access to the machine, there
are dirty ways to undo an unknown password.
