First question that needs to be asked - have you triple-checked that
you're database info is correct in the wp-config.php file?

Also, copy/paste this code into a new file and hit it in a browser. 
If the page is blank, the variables are correct.  Make sure that is
same info you have in the wp-config file.

// START
$host="HOSTNAME";
$user="USERNAME";
$password="PASSWORD";
$dbname = "DBNAME";
mysql_connect ($host, $user, $password) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());
// END

As for Dreamhost, they run an off-site status site:
http://status.dreamhost.com/

In addition, you may want to change your email options in the Control
Panel:
https://panel.dreamhost.com/?tree=home.announce

There was an email announcement that went out today today at 5:36am. 
It said that a shared database server (named "Gibson") needed a reboot
but failed to come up.  Since the status site say everything is good,
I'd contact support from within the Control Panel and mark it
"emergency/outage".

The 15-hour diss is very unlike them, and using the CP seems to help.

Good luck and keep me posted.  I'm a big fan of Dreamhost and highly
recommend them to others.  They've treated me very well and their
referral program has become the only source of income from my personal
web development.
