xraid error no 27 file too large

Hi folks
We have an Xserve raid about 1.5 years connected with a fibre channel to back of 80 node Apple Xserve Cluster running tiger MAC OS X.It is comprised of a single unit of 14 drives which equals 3.5TB of space.
it's divided into 2 sections which gives me the two raids i mount as
/xraid1 and /xraid2. these run raid level 5.

from Cluster ( slikrock) usedorkgroup Manager to share the xraid volumes to
the other nodes (sr1 through sr52) via NFS (AFP is also enable - but
i think NFS is what is being used. i do not enable disk quotas
or access control lists.

here's the mount as seen from one of the nodes:

172.20.1.100:/xraid1 on /private/var/automount/xraid1 (automounted)
172.20.1.100:/xraid2 on /private/var/automount/xraid2 (automounted)

of course, slikrock is 172.20.1.100 and /xraid1 and /xraid2 i have
made symbolic links as shown below so people can just simply
use /xraid1 instead of /private/var/automount/xraid1.

they actually show up as below but /automount/static/xraid1 is actually
a link to /private/var/automount/xraid1

The problem we are having is when one of our researchers tries to write to xraid 2 , this is error he gets

write_field : ascii : edge : /xraid2/ross/baro/archive_100/output/prs_000034h
1525-013 The sequential or stream WRITE statement cannot be completed because an errno value of 27 (File too large) was received while writing the file /xraid2/ross/baro/archive_100/output/prs_000034h. The program will stop.

Any ideas??
