Not being a hardware or network guy I can't speak in detail to all the TLAs you are using but do know the following is documented: Derby database files must reside local to the machine hosting the Derby DBMS engine. So that leaves out anything over TCP/IP and I know that NFS mounts, Windows file shares and Samba mounts. These systems will result in corruptions because there is not way to insure that a physical write to disk was completed.
from what I know the problem is that nfs blocks and doesn't raise an exception until SO tcp timeout is reached ( linux default 2 hours )
don't know about samba
