Abstract
A computing device includes an interface configured to interface and communicate with a dispersed storage network (DSN), a memory that stores operational instructions, and processing circuitry operably coupled to the interface and to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to execute the operational instructions to perform various operations and functions. The computing device selects storage parameters for a multi-vault synchronization process from a first storage vault to a second storage vault. The computing device synchronizes storage of the set(s) of ingestion encoded data slices (EDSs) between the vaults and maintains storage of a portion of an ingestion data stream within the second storage vault. The computing device facilitates deletion of the set(s) of ingestion EDSs corresponding to the portion of an ingestion data stream from the first storage vault. the computing device performs additional multi-vault synchronization process(es) for any other portion(s) of the ingestion data stream.
