Dear All,

As the database can grow quite large over time, I am running mailpiler 1.1.1 on 
a virtual machine which has /var/lib/mysql attached via nfs from a NAS device. 
Once in a while after an unfriendly shutdown, the database fails. The only 
practical solution I could find is to delete the InnoDB files, start mysql, 
reimport the database from the last backup and run a complete reindex. If 
possible, I would like the database to survive an unfriendly shutdown without 
manual intervention. My impression is that the old MyISAM storage engine (while 
not transactional) is much more robust than InnoDB. Would it be possible to 
change the engine in my.conf and in the tables back to MyISAM without running 
into problems?

Regards,

Michael
