one of the 3rd Party DB's is going to recovery state. Whithout any reason I could find.
The log shows one DBCC CHECKDB after another is running on that database.
Strange, I can access and query the db in ssms.
I did repair_rebuild and it is working again, but after some time the problem arises again.
Any ideas on this?

Turned out, the database had AUTO_CLOSE on. and Backup with veeam caused the troubles.

Auto close is a pain. Happy you fixed it.

@JohnyRotten,

Wow. I've never actually heard of any third party (nor anyone else, for that matter) using auto-close on a database before. Thanks for taking the time to post what you found. It's proof positive that it does happen in real life.

yepp, it was my fault to not check the db for policies. It was a software called TCPCM by Siemens (!) checking the database for invalid objects, i found a few stored procs with invalid table references... seems to be a product of quality O_o.

I learned to take extra care whenever I have to permit an installer to create a database...
