DHCP Error 1010 & 1016

Friday I had a DHCP server error 1010 & 1016 on my Windows 2008R2 Domain Controller. Here's the error:

Log Name:      System
Source:        Microsoft-Windows-DHCP-Server
Date:          9/11/2015 12:00:16 AM
Event ID:      1010
Task Category: None
Level:         Error
Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:      xxxxxx.MCC.LOCAL
Description:
The DHCP service encountered the following error while cleaning up the database:
An error occurred while accessing the DHCP database. Look at the DHCP server event log for more information on this error.

The DHCP event log didn't have any errors in it. The Microsoft site's recommendation is to replace the dhcp.mdb file with one from a backup. I haven't replaced it because I wanted to see if the error happened again. So far the error has not happened again, so I'm wondering if I really do need to replace it. It seems to be working fine. Should I wait and see if the error comes back or just go ahead and replace it?
