Abstract

A storage unit includes an interface configured to interface and communicate with a dispersed storage network (DSN), a memory that stores operational instructions, and processing circuitry. The storage unit receives a set of read slice requests for a set of encoded data slices (EDSs) associated with a data object stored within a first set of storage units, where the storage the first set of storage units includes the storage unit. When at least a read threshold number of EDSs and fewer than all of the set of EDSs can be successfully retrieved from the first set of storage units, the storage unit identifies at least one EDS associated with a data object that is stored in a second set of storage units, obtains the at least one EDS and stores the at least one EDS in the storage unit.
