Abstract:
A method of apportioning storage units in a dispersed storage network (DSN) includes generating storage unit apportioning data indicating a mapping of a plurality of desired numbers of storage units to a plurality of storage sites based on site reliability data. The mapping includes a first desired number of storage units corresponding to a first one of the plurality of storage sites that is greater than a second desired number of storage units corresponding to a second one of the plurality of storage sites in response to the site reliability data indicating that a first reliability score corresponding to the first one of the plurality of storage sites is more favorable than a second reliability score corresponding to the second one of the plurality of storage sites. A plurality of storage units are allocated to the plurality of storage sites based on the storage unit apportioning data.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of apportioning storage units in a dispersed storage network (DSN), the method comprising:\n generating storage unit apportioning data indicating a mapping of a plurality of desired numbers of storage units to a plurality of storage sites based on site reliability data, wherein the storage unit apportioning data represents each of the plurality of desired numbers of storage units is a numerical value, wherein when the site reliability data includes a first reliability score for the first one of the plurality of storage sites and a second reliability score for the second one of the plurality of storage sites and the first reliability score is more favorable than the second reliability score, the mapping includes a first desired number of storage units mapped to to a first one of the plurality of storage sites that is greater than a second desired number of storage units mapped to a second one of the plurality of storage sites; and allocating a plurality of storage units to the plurality of storage sites based on the storage unit apportioning data, wherein each of the plurality of storage units includes at least one processor and at least one memory device.
