Im on 6.2R
and I have  the same problem, Server rebooting it self As with your 
situation, there are no
apparent patterns.
I changed the power supply (It was already new) I added fans, I changed 
RAMS,
but always same issues, server rebooting with no known issues!!
the problem that..its SERVER. and its acting as gateway, around 80 users,
has to disconnect every 2-4 weeks.....
