Abstract: A method begins by receiving a request to retrieve a data segment stored as encoded data slices in a distributed storage network (DSN). The method continues by determining whether at least the threshold number of encoded data slices is cached in temporary storage associated with a distributed storage processing module. When the at least the threshold number of encoded data slices are cached in the temporary storage, the method continues by retrieving the at least the threshold number of encoded data slices from the temporary storage. When the at least the threshold number of encoded data slices is not cached in the temporary storage, the method continues by retrieving one or more of the encoded data slices from the DSN to obtain the at least the threshold number of encoded data slices.

Abstract: A method begins by a processing module determining to move a range of encoded data slices from a first storage unit to a second storage unit of a plurality of storage units, where data objects are dispersed storage error encoded to produce pluralities of sets of encoded data slices, and where the pluralities of sets of encoded data slices are stored in the plurality of storage units. The method continues with the processing module transferring the range of encoded data slices from the first storage unit to the second storage unit. In response to the transferring the range of encoded data slices from the first storage unit to the second storage unit, the method continues with the processing module transferring a corresponding range of second encoded data slices from a third storage unit to a fourth storage unit.

Abstract: A technique by a processing module of a computing device of a dispersed storage network (DSN) to generate metadata associated with a stored data object. Once the data object is identified, a data segment of the data object is determined and a number of data slices corresponding to the data segment is retrieved. Then, the data segment is regenerated from the retrieved data slices. Once the data segment is regenerated, metadata that is associated with the data segment is generated and stored.
