Abstract
Facilitation of transfer of pre-operating system (pre-OS) data to a persistent store is enabled relative to an operation performed external to the OS. A system can comprise a processor, and a memory that stores computer executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, can facilitate performance of operations. The operations can comprise writing data relative to a pre-OS environment to a partition external to an operating system (OS) partition, and, in response to a reboot operation, booting an OS and transferring the data or a copy of the data to the OS partition. Alternatively, the operations can comprise, writing data relative to an updating operation to a log accessible by an OS of the system, assigning a variable value to the log, automatically searching, while operating the OS, for the variable value, and copying or transferring the data relative to the OS via identifying the variable value upon the identification.
