Ubuntu goes down daily at night - VM

Question

We have a Ubuntu VM on Hyper-V and on it we have a LAMP server installed and an internal domain accessible from the intranet .

Everyday we have to restart it because the connectivity to the server goes down .

When we log to the VM , the network is down , no internet at all

I saw the logs and something happen at 2am

Here is more info :

Update :

enter image description here

Please add the output of $ dmesg > dmesg.txt when networking is down. Paste the output on paste.ubuntu.com. Also, please share the network management between the VM and the host and can you SSH the host when the VM is down. — xyz, Aug 15 '14 at 16:10
Since you're hosting, I am assuming bridged mode, but try NAT with port forwarding as well (virten.net/2013/03/…). — xyz, Aug 15 '14 at 16:16

I cannot comment, so I'll answer here.

Isn't the line udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth2 the problem in your log ? see http://blog.giuseppeurso.net/udev-renamed-network-interface-eth-to-eth/ or http://tadek.pietraszek.org/blog/2008/03/04/wth-eth0-got-renamed-to-eth2-after-an-upgrade/ for some examples of resolution.
