1. A method for execution when a generic computing device is paired with a specific computing device token, the method comprises: sending, by the specific computing device token, a distributed storage network (DSN) access request to DSN memory via the generic computing device, wherein the DSN access request identifies specific computing device operation information that is stored as one or more of sets of encoded data slices in the DSN memory and wherein the specific computing device operation information was encoded using a dispersed storage error encoding function to produce the one or more of sets of encoded data slices; receiving, by the specific computing device token, the one or more of sets of encoded data slices from the DSN memory via the generic computing device; decoding, by the specific computing device token, the one or more of sets of encoded data slices to retrieve the specific computing device operation information; enabling the generic computing device to function as a specific computing device in accordance with the specific computing device operation information; detecting an end of session between the generic computing device and the specific computing device token; when the end of session is detected: capturing, by the generic computing device, a subsequent configuration of the generic computing device functioning as the specific computing device to produce subsequent configuration information; encoding, by the specific computing device token, the subsequent configuration information using the dispersed storage error encoding function to produce one or more sets of encoded configuration slices; sending, by the specific computing device token via the generic computing device, the one or more sets of encoded configuration slices to the DSN memory for storage therein; and securing, by the generic computing device, main memory of the generic computing module regarding the functioning as the specific computing device.
