Ask HN: Ever worked with a service that can never be restarted?

I'm currently working with a legacy system. One element of it has a loaded config in memory, but the physical config was accidentally overwritten and there are no backups. In addition the source code for this compiled binary has also been lost in the mists of time. The service has current up time of 55 Months. The general consensus therefore is that as long as it is never restarted it will continue to perform its function until a replacement can be put in place. Which seems a little fatalistic to me... Has anyone experience of doing something sensible in a similar situation?
