Abstract
A method for execution by a dispersed storage and task (DST) processing unit includes: generating an encoded data slice from a dispersed storage encoding of a data object and determining when the encoded data slice will not be stored in local dispersed storage. When the encoded data slice will not be stored in the local dispersed storage, the encoded data slice is stored via at least one elastic slice in an elastic dispersed storage, an elastic storage pointer is generated indicating a location of the elastic slice in the elastic dispersed storage, and the elastic storage pointer is stored in the local dispersed storage.
