Abstract

See full text

A method begins by a processing module determining a slice name of an encoded slice to be rebuilt within a first dispersed storage network (DSN). The method continues with the processing module determining whether a corresponding copy of the encoded slice is stored in a second DSN. The method continues with the processing module retrieving the corresponding copy of the encoded slice from the second DSN and storing the corresponding copy of the encoded slice as a rebuilt encoded slice within the first DSN when the corresponding copy of the encoded slice is stored in the second DSN.
