berkeley db based repositories must not be put on network shares. They
get corrupted.
If you really want to use a network share, dump the repository, then
create a new one but an FSFS based one, and then load the dumped
repository into that new one.

Also: berkeley db repos grow fast but you can clean the log files to get
a lot of space back.
