Appendix A: Hardware reliability
Mean time between failures
Mean
time between failures (MTBF) is the average value of the time intervals between successive outages
of the system. This average value is calculated from, and based on, a large population of nominally
identical items. The following table provides MTBF values for VSP 7000 series hardware.
Important:
You must install the switch and it's components correctly and operate the hardware within the supported
environmental conditions. The MTBF values in the following table do not include failure caused by
software or human error.
