Summary :

This paper considers a two-unit warm standby redundant system. Preventive maintenance (PM) for an active unit is scheduled after a certain period. When an active unit fails or undergoes PM while the other is in standby, the operation is switched to the standby unit. Probability of success in switchover is constant. If the system fails in switchover, the system stops the operation, and resumes it after a certain time. MTTFF, MTBF and steady state availability are obtained. Numerical examples show the effects of PM interval on them.
