A restore worked for me to. But only for a couple of day's.
Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have an installation at a client where the Watchers periodically stop working, for no known reason. Today I spent about four hours trying to get the system to start responding, doing the normal steps such as uninstalling and reinstalling FCServer, compressor, etc. Eventually the only thing which brought the system back to life was to restore a database backup from the 23rd of February, which is odd because the system was working fine until around 1:43 PM on Friday the 27th. I can not figure out why this might be, but suffice to say the client is not happy about the four days of work lost. (By work, I mean annotations) Any suggestions of how to trouble shoot this would be appreciated.

I have the same problem, still unsolved though. See my topic.

How have you set up your devices? Is it AFP, FTP?
The are MetaSAN volumes. The particular device is not set up as "edit in place," so as far as Final Cut Server is concerned it is a local volume.
I used to have this problem when I ran Qmaster/Compressor on the same server as FCServer. Now, I have FCServer send the render jobs to another xServe...runs perfectly and for months now.
