    Folks, something broke NFS between pii3 and at least some of the other
    pii's- new files were getting created with size 0 or with corrupt
    content.
    
    I do not know what caused this (did ITD do any work around our
    counting house?), but I made a temporary fix by forcing all
    pii3:/home mounts use "rsize=1024,wsize=1024" option.
    
    This seems to fix the symptoms, at the price of degraded performance.
    
    Unfortunately the Internet is also acting up (BNL's internet connection
    was down for the last 10-30 minutes, and flaky before that), so
    I cannot do more testing. If somebody has any more info on this
    (symptoms, etc), please let me know.
    
    There is a limited probability that the problem is caused on pii3'end
    (fat chance!), so if there is anybody in the counting house tomorrow,
    please contact me (olchansk@bnl.gov) so we can try to reboot pii3.
