1) You cannot use ERM mirroring with jBASE databases, all you are doing 
is mirroring the file system updates, so if the file is corrupted on the 
master it will be faithfully corrupted on the remote copy. Basically all 
you are doing is wasting computing power and money on a useless backup 
system (as you have just discovered). You can search this forum (as the 
posting guidelines suggest) for information on corrupt files - there are 
lots of posts about why you cannot use things like disk mirroring, tar, 
etc. This should really have been explained to you before you tried to 
implement such a solution.

2) If your files are getting corrupted without having a power-failure, 
make sure that you are not issuing commands like 'kill -9' on processes. 
Again there are lots of past posts on this subject - use the group 
search facility.

Next, if you are having to reboot because of power failure, immediately 
go out and buy a UPS. This will be a lot better investment than the 
money spent on ERM. Finally, you have two machines so implement 
Transaction Journaling replication, which will give you a reliable 
duplication of your database. Such things have to be done with the 
application (jBASE in this case) because otherwise you cannot guarantee 
that transactions are only marked complete once they are duplicated on 
the remote system; when you cannot do this, your data duplication is 
pretty much worthless even if you can do it without duplicating file 
corruption.
