[mythtv-users] database failure

Greetings Mythizens, 10 days ago, you may recall I awoke to the green
screen of Terra theme unable to open the FE or BE. I thought inserting the "
optimize_mythdb.pl" into the "mythfilldatabase" script would prevent such
failures, evidently only partially. Today I noticed the box on, for a 10am
recording, and out to shovel snow I went, when I came in the box was off,
all good. Later just after 1pm the box is on again for another recording,
when I went to see exactly what it was recording I had no mouse/keyboard
functionality. After a hard reboot and a couple other reboots the FE would
try to open, then crash repeatedly, another reboot and the BE showed no
capture devices configured or input connections, but did have recording
sources. Using my newly developed command line skills I restored the latest
DBbackup and am good to go again, curiously though no sign of the 10am
recording. What should I look into to determine why this is happening and
prevent future episodes?  Here is a BE log:

Relevant data should appear around Feb. 14th, everything seemed OK Feb.
13th.
TIA  Daryl
