That is what I would have guessed until I took a look at my own MDT. Sure enough, I have the directories /O/1/d[0-31] and each one seems to have 3 files that are about 3.5MB each (along with some other smaller ones). Here is what one of those directories looks like:
debugfs: ls -l /O/1/d14
16777293 40700 (2) 0 0 4096 20-Apr-2015 14:09 .
16777278 40755 (2) 0 0 4096 13-May-2014 16:51 ..

The three large files seem to have been created the last time the MDT was mounted. The timestamps for the other smaller files coincides with the Lustre upgrade we performed last year. But I am not sure what is contained in these files.
Radu: Are the timestamps for all of your files the same? Or is the system gradually accumulating them over time for some reason?
