Abstract
Methods and apparatus for use in a storage network operate by: storing, in a first storage unit of a first set of storage units of the storage network, a first encoded data slice corresponding to at least one data object; assigning one or more additional storage units to the storage network to form a second set of storage units, the second set of storage units including the one or more additional storage units; migrating the first encoded data slice from the first storage unit to at least one of the one or more additional storage units of the second set of storage units; and reallocating a mapping of the first encoded data slice from the first storage unit to the at least one of the one or more additional storage units of the second set of storage units.
