Sorry for the late response. Unfortunately, I don't think the reference server implementation could ever work reliably for writes. The gist of it is that it uses fallocate() to allocate new blocks and these are marked unintialized. Since LAYOUTCOMMIT is not handled by the file system they are never marked as initialized and therefore they are read as containing zero by the MDS. So, for read-only, you can try pnfs-all-3.3.
