There needs to be a 0-byte file named SPACE in each data area.  It 
should be owner and group writable.

touch /home/AIPS/DATA/LOCALHOST_2/SPACE

will do it.  also

chmod g+s /home/AIPS/DATA/LOCALHOST_2

will add the "sticky bit".  That makes all files in the directory  owned 
by the group of the directory file.
