Abstract

See full text

A method begins by a processing module receiving a first request to store a program. The method continues with the processing module determining first error coding dispersal storage function parameters and encoding a data segment of the program. The method continues with the processing module determining whether a second request to store the program is received. The method continues with the processing module encoding a second data segment of the program in accordance with the first error coding dispersal storage function parameters when the second request is not received. The method continues with the processing module changing the first error coding dispersal storage function parameters based on the another request to produce second error coding dispersal storage function parameters when the second request is received. The method continues with the processing module encoding the second data segment in accordance with the second error coding dispersal storage function parameters.
