But, I need to make sure that is the case and not something else. Imagine the scenario of upgrading and still have the same problem. I believe that the only way to avoid the mentioned scenario is to find technical evidences which support what you are saying. I suppose that you say that because you have seen similar problems and the cause of them was the LDBM backend. Thus, I asked about hints which could help me to find these evidences and make a proposal to my Managers for upgrading to the latest version. Since, you are mentioning about corruption, I can easily see that using db_verify and say if the problem is coming from the corruption of the DB files. Then, I need to find out what is causing the corruption and as you say the LDBM backend is a candidate for this. Do you have any ITS which point to that issue? So far I have found only ITS3421 which could be related to my issue. Cheers, Pavlos
