error recovery
Fixing after failure
Error recovery is the process of returning a system to normal operation after something goes wrong.
In computing, error recovery handles crashed programs, corrupted files, or failed connections: The database has built-in error recovery.
The term extends to any systematic response to failure—restoring function rather than simply detecting the problem.
