[daip] AIPS on lustre

[Scott Michael]

We've managed to get aips working on a lustre mount, however we had to 
use local file locking by mounting with -o localflock. This may cause 
issues for us, the dc team can elaborate. We were wondering what the 
purpose of the file locking is and if there is some way around it. As 
some added info I'm including strace ouputs for aips when the data 
directory is on local disk and when it is on the lustre fs (dc.out) 
without local file locking.
