I'd keep multi-master redundant servers on separate power supplies if possible. Or at least a decent clean shut down off UPS power. It may be simplest to recover the databases from backup using the import scripts than attempt to recover an existing corrupted database. There is a section in the manual (can't find the link right away) that states if the servers go down hard then the databases "will" be corrupted and to restore from backup.
