Abstract: High availability computer systems as their name implies are available or "on" virtually all the time and thus the system must be able to recover or restart after the occurrence of one of the errors which occur at least at a statistical rate. If one logical processor of a functional redundancy checked pair is always assigned as the core processor unit for the restart initialization, the system has essentially a single failure point that seriously degrades its availability. This system by including supporting logic which cycles which logical processor of a FRC pair is assigned as the core processors for each subsequent restart removes the single point failure possibility.
