/Data Object Rollback Based On Detecting An Error
Abstract

A method for execution by one or more computing devices of a storage network includes determining an error condition associated with storage of a current version of a data object that is stored in a set of storage units of the storage network and is stored as a previous version of the data object. The method further includes sending a rollback transaction request message to at least some storage units of the set of storage units, where the at least some storage units are associated with the error condition, and where the rollback transaction request message instructs the at least some storage units to promote the previous version to be a new current version of the data object such that the new current version of the data object is accessible in the storage network.
