摘要： A method begins by a dispersed storage (DS) processing module receiving a request to copy a data object in a dispersed storage network (DSN). The method continues with the DS processing module identifying one or more sets of at least a decode threshold number of slice names for one or more sets of encoded data slices of the data object and generating one or more sets of at least a decode threshold of new slice names. The method continues with the DS processing module sending the one or more sets of at least a decode threshold of new slice names to storage nodes of the DSN and instructing the storage nodes to link the one or more sets of at least a decode threshold of new slice names to the one or more sets of encoded data slices thereby producing a non-replicated copy of the data object.

摘要： A method begins by a processing module dispersed storage error encoding a data segment to produce a set of encoded data slices and dispersed storage error encoding metadata associated with the data segment to produce a set of encoded metadata slices. The method continues with the processing module creating a set of data slice names for the set of encoded data slices and creating a set of metadata slice names based on the set of data slice names. The method continues with the processing module sending the set of encoded data slices and the set of data slice names to a dispersed storage network (DSN) memory for storage therein. The method continues with the processing module sending the set of encoded metadata slices and the set of metadata slice names to the DSN memory for storage therein.

摘要： A method begins by a processing module determining a priority access level of an encoded data slice stored on a memory device. The method continues with the processing module determining an end-of-life memory level for the memory device. The method continues with the processing module determining whether to migrate the encoded data slice from the memory device based on the priority access level and the end-of-life memory level. The method continues with the processing module identifying another memory device. The method continues with the processing module facilitating migration of the encoded data slice to another memory device.

摘要： A method begins by a processing module receiving a write request message from a dispersed storage (DS) processing module, wherein the write request message includes a slice name, a DS processing module most-recent slice revision, a new slice revision, and an encoded directory slice of directory information regarding storage of data. The method continues with the processing module obtaining, from local memory, a DS unit most-recent slice revision based on the slice name. The method continues with the processing module storing the new slice revision as the DS unit most-recent slice revision and storing the encoded directory slice when the DS unit most-recent slice revision compares favorably to the DS processing module most-recent slice revision.

摘要： A method begins by a processing module decoding a set of encoded data slices to produce a decoded data segment and determining whether the decoded data segment includes an error. When the decoded data segments includes the error, the processing module identifies one or more errant encoded data slices by decoding another set of encoded data slices to produce another decoded data segment. The method continues with the processing module determining whether the other decoded data segment includes the error. When the other decoded data segment does not include the error, the processing module identifies the one or more errant encoded data slices and corrects the one or more errant encoded data slices. When the other decoded data segment includes the error, the processing module repeats, for yet another set of encoded data slices, the decoding step, the determining step, and the identifying and correcting step or the repeating steps.
