Abstract

Examples provide systems and a method for handling errors during run-time back up of volatile memory. The method includes initiating a backup of a volatile memory domain to a non-volatile memory domain. Memory registers are polled for completion of the backup. It is determined if the backup was successful. If not successful, an operating system (OS) is notified that the backup failed, and the backup is completed to an alternate media.
