Abstract
A computer system includes a microprocessor, a storage device, and a system memory. The storage device is accessible by the microprocessor. The system memory is accessible by the microprocessor and adapted to store data. The data includes operating system software. The operating system software, when executed by the microprocessor, is adapted to detect an error condition, and in response to the error condition, read at least a portion of the data stored in the system memory, compress the portion to generate compressed data, and store the compressed data on the storage device. A method for responding to an unrecoverable error in a computer system includes identifying the unrecoverable error and reading at least a first portion of the data stored in a memory device of the computer system. The first portion is compressed to generate compressed data, and the compressed data is stored on a storage device of the computer system.
