Abstract:
A method begins by a dispersed storage (DS) processing module transmitting a set of write commands for storing a set of encoded data slices in storage units of a dispersed storage network (DSN) and determining whether at least a first threshold number of write responses have been received within a response time period. When the at least the first threshold number of the write responses have been received within the response time period, the method continues with the DS processing module determining whether a total number of responses have been received within another response time period. When the total number of responses have not been received within the other response time period, the method continues with the DS processing module issuing a sub-set of write commit commands corresponding to a response number of encoded data slices for which a response was received.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for execution by one or more processing modules of one or more computing devices of a dispersed storage network (DSN), the DSN including DSN memory, the method comprises:\n issuing a set of write commands for storing a set of encoded data slices in DSN memory of the DSN, wherein a data segment is dispersed storage error encoded into the set of encoded data slices such that a decode threshold number of encoded data slices is required to recover the data segment, the decode threshold number less than a total number of encoded data slices of the set of encoded data slices; determining a first threshold number of favorable write responses, wherein the first threshold number is less than the total number of encoded data slices and a favorable write response indicates that a corresponding encoded date slice of the set of encoded data slices has been stored, at least temporarily, in the DSN memory; and when receiving at least the first threshold number of favorable write responses during a first response time period:\n determining a second response time period for receiving an incremental favorable write response; and \n issuing a set of write commit commands corresponding to favorable write responses received during the first response time period and the second response time period, wherein a write commit command indicates that a corresponding encoded data slice is to be stored in the DSN memory on a non-temporary basis.
