[daip] Aips and LUSTRE network file system

There are 2 things that I see:

1. File locking is not implemented for your file system. This is
particularly bad for aisp disk 1.

2. When the lock business is ignored ("non-atomic" file creation), the
attempt to fill small files with 0's in ZCREAT also fails to fill the
requested number of 0s.  Since aips only uses the most basic I/O
calls, e.g. open, read/write, close I think there must be several
further things missing from your operating system.
