Abstract

In some examples, error recovery in volatile memory regions may include determining, during a save operation that includes saving of data to a primary location, that an error occurred with respect to the save operation. Based on a determination that the error occurred with respect to the save operation, an error location may be determined, and a determination may be made as to whether the error location maps to a volatile memory region. Based on a determination that the error location maps to the volatile memory region, a reserved location may be identified for saving the data. The data may be saved from the primary location to the reserved location. Further, metadata may be updated to indicate usage of the reserved location as the primary location for the saved data.
