Except ...it doesn't answer the question: HOW CPU RECOGNIZE ITS OWN FAILURE?
I don't have the original documents (Redbooks/Share presentations/KC/etc.) from 
IBM, but in short this is what happens (from my failing/decaying memory):

Each CPU (on an IBM mainframe) consists of two halves. Both halves are 
executing an instruction and the results are compared.

If there is a difference, then the instruction is retried. If still there is a 
difference, somehow the CPU is giving the instruction and the rest of the cache 
to another [unoccupied] CPU and then turns itself of and announce its own 
status to the hardware.

Sorry for not having the full details, but this is what I remember ...

Oh, of course, If I am wrong or the process described above changed, please 
correct me.

That's what I heard about, but I wanted to get some confirmation or even written source.
