There's a similar problem we've been seeing with HP DL360's (I think) and
(definitely) DL385s and the 5704 chipset where the NIC just shuts down.
Downing then re-upping the interface brings it back online. Supposedly a new
firmware fixes it, though we had at least one updated box hang the same way
again on Fri.
