Here's the scenario.
We have a ring mix of dn3500, 4500, and 400t's.
Running 10.1 and 10.3 Domain OS.
We've got gremlins in the wiring cabinet and often
experience momentary network glitches.
We've got a dsp acting as a primary file server for
our system. We've been hit 3 times recently as follows:

We've updated system files on the server all day long
using rcs CI, Dm editor, vi, copy file. The files are
opened-closed compiled, etc. Suddenly at time T all these
files are nulled out (they are correct size but contain 
nulls not data). Only those files that were touched 
during a particulat time span are affected.

Any ideas ?
