The pursuit of higher availability has resulted in the development of fault tolerant systems for many industries. However, system characteristics that can be perceived by the customer have never been diagnosed quantitatively. This paper considers the application of stochastic Petri nets with general firing times to modeling of a fault tolerant system and the use of discrete-event simulation methods for stochastic Petri nets to study the behavior of the system. The stochastic Petri net model incorporates factors that compose the system as well as those that accompany it, including RAS characteristics of products, personnel arrangements, and system management. By modeling the behavioral aspect of each factor, it is possible to diagnose a fault tolerant system quantitatively on the basis of customer impact.
