The Present paper deals with the analysis of two-unit cold standby system with two types of failure. For making the system more effective, it is considered that the unit in the system which is under operationfails with two types say type-Iand type-II. If the unit fails due to type-I then the failed unit goes for repair and if it fails due to type-II then it goes for replacement by new one. Failure time distributions of type-I and type-II areexponential. The repair and replacement time distributions are general. By using regenerative points technique with Markov Renewal Process, the various measures such as MTSF, Availability analysis, Busy period analysis, expected number of visits by the repairman and cost benefit analysis of the system effectiveness are obtained.

Mean Time to System Failure, Availability, Cost benefit analysis, Regenerative point.
