Exactly. Some idiot decided to program the entire system to shut down after 49 days. What an idiot, why not just setup a maintenance program to perform a scheduled re-boot of the system instead of having an automated proecess shut down the system and then have to schedule a work around for this by scheduling a manual boot every 30 days (which someone forgot).
Which, likely in this case, would have to somehow be monitored, seems to be a pretty critical application, one in which lives are dependant, and it is entirely possible the system might not recover from a reboot.
