Abstract
A method for execution by a dispersed storage and task (DST) execution unit includes identifying a plurality of pending operations. A resource availability level to support execution of at least one of the plurality of pending operations is determined, and a required resource level to execute the at least one of the plurality of pending operations is determined. A balance factor between at least two types of the plurality of pending operations is determined based on the resource availability level and the required resource level. Determination of required timing of the execution of the at least one of the plurality of pending operations is coordinated with at least one other DST execution unit. An operation execution schedule is updated based on the required resource levels, the resource availability level, the balance factor, and the required timing of the execution.
