Abstract
We consider a system which consists of one operating element and cold redundant elements of the same type. System failures are partially eliminated by repair and partially by replacement of the faulty element with a normally operating standby element (if no such element is available, the system fails). A comprehensive analysis of system failure probability is performed.
