Abstract
We consider a system comprising two identical units. Initially one unit operates and the other remains as a cold standby. At random intervals, checking is done to ascertain the need of Corrective Maintenance (CM). In case CM has to be carried out, the standby unit starts operating. While the unit is operative, it may fail. Failures are of two types, repairable and non-repairable. When the system fails with non-repairable failure of both the units, it is replaced. Several reliability characteristics of interest to system designers as well as to operations managers have been evaluated.
