Conclusive write operation dispersed storage network frame
First Claim
1. A method for execution by a computer to perform a conclusive write request operation, the method comprises:
- generating a payload of a dispersed storage network (DSN) frame regarding the conclusive write request operation by;
generating one or more slice name fields of the payload to include one or more slice names corresponding to one or more write commit responses of a write request operation, wherein the conclusive write request operation is a conclusive phase of the write request operation; and
generating one or more slice revision numbering fields of the payload, wherein each slice revision numbering field includes a slice revision number corresponding to an associated slice name of the one or more slice names; and
generating a protocol header of the DSN frame by;
generating a payload length field of the protocol header to include a payload length that represents length of the one or more slice name fields and length the one or more slice revision numbering fields; and
generating remaining fields of the protocol header.

Abstract
A method begins by a processing module generating a payload of a dispersed storage network frame regarding a conclusive write request operation by generating one or more slice name fields of a payload to include one or more slice names corresponding to one or more write commit responses of a write request operation, wherein the conclusive write request operation is a conclusive phase of the write request operation. The method continues with the processing module generating one or more slice revision numbering fields of the payload, wherein each slice revision numbering field includes a slice revision number corresponding to an associated slice name of the one or more slice names. The method continues with the processing module generating a protocol header of the DSN frame by generating a payload length field of the protocol header to include a payload length and generating remaining fields of the protocol header.
