Faults in computer systems sometimes occur intermittently. This paper applies a standard inspection policy with imperfect inspection to a computer system: The system is checked at periodic times and its failure is detected at the next checking time with a certain probability. The expected cost until failure detection is obtained, and when the failure time is exponential, an optimal inspection time to minimize it is derived. Next, when the system executes computer processes, it is checked at random processing times and its failure is detected at the next checking time with a certain probability. The expected cost until failure detection is obtained, and when random processing times are exponential, an optimal inspection time to minimize it is derived. Finally, this paper compares optimal times for two inspection policies and shows that if the random inspection cost is the half of the periodic one, then two expected costs are almost the same.
