012DatabaseError: database disk image is malformed

Erm.... Houston, we have a problem.... ;-(

Fortunatley this is only a multi-node test instance, because as it stands I'm in no way happy enough to put Swift into production as it feels too much like beta software .... but I digress, back to the question at heart.....

As usual, yet another cryptic log message from Swift, but this one sounds a bit more serious ! (And service/object API interactions fail with 503:service unavailable)
