Mean Time To Repair. Usually expressed in hours. (8/97)

mean time to repair. The average time required to restore a customer's service after a network failure.

MTTR stands for ean ime epair and is represented by the mean life value for a distribution of repair times. ( see Maintainability.)

minimum mean time repair

An estimated or actual average time required to perform repairs on a computer component or system.

mean time to recovery. n. For a stated period in the life of a functional unit, the average time required for corrective maintenance.

See mean time to recover (MTTR).

Mean-Time-To-Resolution

The average time it takes to repair a drive in the field. In the field, only major subassemblies are changed (the PCB, sealed housing, etc.), excluding component level repairs as these are not performed in the field.

The amount of time that is required to repair a power supply. This time can be influenced by numerous factors, such as electrical problems or actual design of the supply.

The average time required to repair a piece of equipment. It is a result of both electrical and mechanical design factors.

Mean Time to Repair. The average time it takes from issuing a trouble report to restoring service.

Mean time to repair. This is a measure of serviceability.

Mean Time To Repair. Estimated time to repair a drive.

See Mean-Time-To-Repair.

Mean time to repair. Usually given in hours.

Mean Time To Repair. This is the amount of time it takes for the system to resume operation after any component fails or is upgraded. You want this to be as small as possible.

Mean Time To Recover. The desired time required to perform instance or media recovery on the database. A variety of factors influence MTTR for media recovery, including the speed of detection, the method used to perform media recovery, and the size of the database.

Mean Time To Repair. Especially useful for in complex systems, MTTR provides a mean time from the onset of a failure to return to pre-failure operational status.

Mean Time To Repair. Also known in the literature as MTTF (Mean Time To Fix).

Mean Time To Repair. The average time to repair a given unit. Limited to a qualified technician with proper equipment.

Mean time to repair. The average time taken from the time a trouble report is made until service is restored.

Mean Time to Repair. The Mean time required to make an item operable on the repair site.

Mean Time to Repair. The average amount of time required to resolve most hardware or software problems with a given device.

MTTR - An abbreviation for Mean Time To Repair, a theoretical period of time need to repair a piece of equipment given certain circumstances.

Mathematical calculation (or statistical average if available) of the time required repairing a device.

Average time taken to arrive on site to correct a fault in a system or component.

Mean Time To Repair (Thanks to Srinivas Rao)

Mean Time to Repair. The total amount of time spent performing all corrective maintenance repairs divided by the total number of those repairs.

Mean Time To Repair - the average time it takes to repair a given piece of equipment or equipment set

Mean Time to Repair – average down time between an incident occurring and restoration of service/the system O,P

Mean Time to Recovery: The average time it takes to restore service after a breakdown or loss. This is usually an empirical measurement.

Mean Time to Repair Defect (20)

Mean Time To Repair. The average time required to repair a failure. Automated fault isolation techniques, including automatic fault bypassing, have reduced this measurement of system recovery time.

Mean Time To Repair. Average time taken to correct a fault in a system or component.

Mean time to recovery. The average amount of time a device will spend in corrective maintenance over a given period of time. Mean time to repair. The average amount of time needed to repair a failed unit.

Mean Time To Repair. The average time to correct a failure and return the equipment to a condition where it can perform its intended function; the sum of all repair time (elapsed time, not necessarily total man hours) incurred during a specified period (including equipment and process test time, but not including maintenance delay), divided by the number of failures during that period.

Mean Time To Repair. Average time to repair. The higher the number, the most costly and difficult to fix.

Mean time to repair, the average time required to diagnose and also to repair faulty equipment.

The average time required to perform corrective maintenance on a failed device.

Mean Time To Repair. Average Repair time for component.

Mean time to repair. The average time required to bring an array storage subsystem back to full fault tolerance.

mean time to repair. The average time required by the maintenance team to implement a change and restore the system to working order to calculate MTTR.

Acronym for mean time to repair.

Mean Time To Repair. The time to repair a piece of equipment on the average.

MTTR is an abbreviation that has several different expansions, with greatly differing meanings. It is wise to spell out exactly what is meant by the use of this abbreviation, rather than assuming the reader will know which is being assumed. The M can stand for any of minimum, mean or maximum, and the R can stand for any of recovery, repair, respond, or restore.
