Abstract
A system and method are provided for detecting and recovering from errors in a control store memory of an electronic data processing system. In some cases, errors in the control store memory are detected and recovered from without any required interaction with an operating system of the data processing system. Thus, errors in the control store memory can be handled seamlessly and efficiently, without requiring a maintenance technician, or in some cases, a specialized operating system routine, to help diagnose and fix the error.
