Abstract

A dispersed storage network (DSN) includes multiple storage units. A processing unit included in the DSN detects a failing storage unit, and issues an error indicator to a recovery unit. The error indicator indicates the failing storage unit. To verify that the storage unit is failing, the recovery unit issues a test request to the failing storage unit. The recovery unit determines to implement a corrective action for recovery units that are determined to be actually failing, and facilitates implementing the corrective action.
