1. A method for a processing module of a computing device to execute a write request operation, the method comprises:

  • generating a payload of a dispersed storage network (DSN) frame regarding the write request operation by;

    generating a transaction number field of the payload to include a transaction number corresponding to the write request operation; and

    generating one or more slice payload sections, wherein a slice payload section of the one or more slice payload sections includes;

    generating a slice name field to include a slice name of one or more slice names corresponding to an encoded data slice of one or more encoded data slices;

    generating a slice revision numbering field to include a revision number of the slice name;

    generating a slice length field to include a length of the encoded data slice; and

    generating a slice payload field to include the encoded data slice; 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 transaction number field and length of the one or more slice payload sections; and

    generating remaining fields of the protocol header.
