They can and do fail.  See list archives for numerous reports and 
examples :)

Generators are capable of not starting.
ATSs can get into a situation where they don't transfer loads properly, or 
they can't start the generator(s)
UPSs can fail, drain out, or be left in bypass.
Breakers can trip and need a manual reset
etc...
