hello,
i think there are no such numbers announced publicly (MTBF for the whole machine) - what i have seen are some MTBF numbers for different components. there should be a formula that makes it possible to calculate the MTBF of the whole system considering the MTBF of the parts and the architecture ( how components a connected: serial or parallel, chassis based or not, redundancy of components, etc.) however i could not find a document that describes how exactly to do this calculation. you may find these two documents interesting:

greetings,
Stoyan
