Abstract
A storage network operates by: sending a slice verification request to a destination storage unit, wherein the slice verification request includes a nonce and one or more of: a slice identifier, the slice, a revision indicator, or a verification method indicator; receiving an integrity value from the destination storage unit; determining when the integrity value is verified by determining one of: when a hash of the slice and the nonce matches the integrity value; when a decrypted signature of the integrity value matches a hash of the slice and the nonce; or when the decrypted signature of the integrity value matches the slice and the nonce; and when the integrity value is verified, updating a slice assignment corresponding to the slice, wherein updating the slice assignment associates the destination storage unit with the slice and disassociates the source storage unit from the slice.
