Abstract
This study analyzed the availability of a warm standby system that works with fault detection delay and general repair times. The time-to-detection delay is also considered as exponentially distributed. The detection state is used to detect the faults in the failed unit. The steady state availability of the system is obtained by using supplementary variable technique. Three types of repair time distributions are compared to find the best one.
