Comment (by devel@…):

 We started to collect kernel messages related to the eth0 failure events.

 The following log messages are typical for hosts that are failing
 regularly:
 {{{
 [  202.320000] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Full duplex)
 [  204.320000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [  844.320000] eth0: link down
 [  845.320000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [ 3085.330000] eth0: link up (10Mbps/Half duplex)
 [ 3087.330000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [ 3639.340000] eth0: link down
 [ 3640.340000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [ 3880.350000] eth0: link down
 [ 3881.350000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [ 5071.360000] eth0: link down
 [ 5072.360000] eth0: link up (100Mbps/Full duplex)
 [ 6390.370000] eth0: link down
 }}}

 Thus it seems like there is an event causing a renegotiation of the link
 ({{{link down}}}) from time to time. Exactly one second later there is a
 {{{link up}}} event, if we are lucky. Otherwise there is no further
 renegotiation and the links stays down permanently.

 Sadly this situation cannot be resolved manually by using {{{ethtool}}}
 (error message: {{{No MII transceiver present}}}). For now a reboot is the
 only known workaround for this situation.
