I have seen in the mail list a patch for 1.2 (http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/355d5a40f7a7) to ignore these logs when the disconnection is because of idle timeouts. As far as I could see in this patch and 2.0.13 source code, this patch is already applied in 2.0. So I guess that the disconnection is for other problem, isn't it?
I had completely forgotten I had added such a feature :) See what it logs with attached patch.
I have tried the patch. It confirms my hypothesis, the connection is closed by my load balancer:

Ah. So this is noticed only when Dovecot tries to use the LDAP connection that it's been disconnected.
Is there any way to configure ldap connection with a keepalive, so I don't need a reconnection?
Nope. But you could configure your LDAP server to idle-disconnect after some amount of time.
