MODIFYING DISPERSED STORAGE NETWORK EVENT RECORDS
First Claim
1. A method comprises:
- identifying a performance anomaly within a dispersed storage network (DSN);
identifying a set of collections of records corresponding to the performance anomaly,wherein one of the set of collections of records includes;
an event record including information regarding an event, wherein the event is a user access operation or a system administrative operation initiated by a device affiliated with the DSN;
a first record including information regarding a dispersed storage (DS) processing module processing an event request to produce a plurality of sub-event requests, wherein the event request is regarding the event; and
a plurality of records including information regarding a set of DS units processing the plurality of sub-event requests;
determining whether a reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is determinable based on at least some of the set of collections of records; and
when the reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is not determinable, modifying data collection criteria for one or more of the sets collections of records.

Abstract
A method begins by a dispersed storage (DS) processing module identifying a performance anomaly within a dispersed storage network (DSN). The method continues with the DS processing module identifying a set of collections of records corresponding to the performance anomaly, wherein one of the set of collections of records includes an event record including information regarding an event, a first record including information regarding a dispersed storage (DS) processing module processing an event request to produce a plurality of sub-event requests, and a plurality of records including information regarding a set of DS units processing the plurality of sub-event requests. The method continues with the DS processing module determining whether a reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is determinable, and when the reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is not determinable, modifying data collection criteria for one or more of the sets collections of records.

9. A dispersed storage (DS) module comprises:
-
a first module, when operable within a computing device, causes the computing device to; identify a performance anomaly within a dispersed storage network (DSN); a second module, when operable within the computing device, causes the computing device to; identify a set of collections of records corresponding to the performance anomaly, wherein one of the set of collections of records includes; an event record including information regarding an event, wherein the event is a user access operation or a system administrative operation initiated by a device affiliated with the DSN; a first record including information regarding a dispersed storage (DS) processing module processing an event request to produce a plurality of sub-event requests, wherein the event request is regarding the event; and a plurality of records including information regarding a set of DS units processing the plurality of sub-event requests; a third module, when operable within the computing device, causes the computing device to; determine whether a reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is determinable based on at least some of the set of collections of records; and a fourth module, when operable within the computing device, causes the computing device to; when the reliable significance indication of the performance anomaly is not determinable, modify data collection criteria for one or more of the sets collections of records. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
