Dear Vlad,
Did you mean gfix –validate ? Yes I tried it, and there is no errors. Here is my memory test with dd command – the result of md5 is all same and no errors found : memtest2.jpg About running DDL, yes.. I actively alter table as is needed. Is this forbidden on live database ? Do you have a complete guide for database maintenance? and what shouldn’t and should do ?

But gbak is nor a reason of corruption, nor a correct tool for diagnosis (gfix is). I ask you again to check RAM on server machine. One more question - does you run DDL statements such as ALTER TABLE on live database ? Regards, Vlad [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
