Abstract
A storage network operates by: generating metadata for a data object; first disperse storage error encoding the metadata to produce a set of metadata slices, wherein the first disperse storage error encoding utilizes first dispersal parameters, the first dispersal parameters including a first decode threshold of 1; generating sets of first data slices via a second disperse storage error encoding of data segments associated with the data object, wherein the second disperse storage error encoding utilizes second dispersal parameters, the second dispersal parameters different from the first dispersal parameters and the second dispersal parameters including a second decode threshold greater than 1; producing an additional data segment associated with the data object wherein the additional data segment is different from the data segments and the metadata; and third disperse storage error encoding the additional data segment to produce a set of second data slices, wherein the third disperse storage error encoding utilizes the first dispersal parameters including the first decode threshold of 1.
