Abstract

A method beings by a computing device receiving a write request for a data segment that has been encoded to produce a set of encoded data slices. The method continues with the write request being stored in memory and a write intent associated with the write request being created and stored as an object in memory. The computing device then determines whether metadata associated with the data segment can be updated, and when the metadata cannot be updated maintaining the write request in memory until a cleanup agent can execute the write intent and successfully update the metadata.
