We have 250+ databases running at 60 client sites on 120+ servers. The databases range in size from 3GB to 80GB, and have been using Firebird/Interbase for 16 years.

I can count on 1 hand the number of true DB corruptions that I have seen, only 1 corruption was due to FB/IB software.

If the database was corrupted, then running the client hardware at a different location (as outlined by the OP) should have reproduced the problem with 100% consistency. It did not.

So, I find your assertion about "corrupted" db to be "naïve".
