Abstract: A single queue with a Poisson input and arbitrary service time is considered. We suppose that the server is subject to random breakdowns that have an arbitrary distribution. The distribution of the queue length at the end of a normal and breakdown period is determined. From this the distribution at a randomly chosen time is found.
