Abstract

As for software rejuvenation, there exists many policies now, including time based, measurement based, and time and measurement based policy. In this paper, the problem caused when applying time and measurement based policy in real system is discussed. And the procedure about how to use this time and measurement policy is presented to improve system availability and lower downtime cost. At last, numerical results for a real server is given.
