Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause: There could be network or firewall maintenance that caused the error messages.
We conclude that likely cause is connectivity loss between HDC1 and HDC2 site. the device looses connectivity. As such, the services fail health checks, as such they are taken out of rotation, as such the service becomes unavailable, Then when connectivity is restored, they come back online.

Impact would be that the 2 sites would be operating independently each responding to DNS requests on their own without knowledge of other site. Until the connection is establish back.
Resolution:

Investigate the network switch or link between the 2 sites why the connection would be interrupted.

Otherwise rare interruptions are nothing to worry about if they recover in such short time.
