heal.abstract	In this study an asymptotical analysis of the reliability of a complex renewable system with an unbounded number of repair units is provided. The system state is given by a binary vector e(t) = [e1(t),..., e(n)(t)], e(i)(t) = 0(1), if at moment t the ith element is failure-free (failed). We assume that at the state e the ith element has failure intensity lambda-i(e). At the instant of failure of every element the renewal work begins and the renewal time has distribution function G(i)(t). Let E} be the set of failed system states. The goal of this study is the asymptotic estimation of the distribution of the time until the first system failure, tau = inf{t:e(t) is-an-element-of E}\e(0) = 0BAR}.	en
