Mike Tutkowski created CLOUDSTACK-1359:
------------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify what we mean by GB in CloudStack documentation
Key: CLOUDSTACK-1359
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1359
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: Doc
Affects Versions: 4.0.0, pre-4.0.0
Environment: Here is an example page with this issue:
http://incubator.apache.org/cloudstack/docs/api/apidocs-4.0.0/root_admin/createDiskOffering.html
Reporter: Mike Tutkowski
Fix For: 4.0.0, pre-4.0.0
On the example page above, the disksize field lists that that it is in GB. For
some people GB means 10 raised to the 9th power (1,000,000,000) bytes while for
others it means 2 raised to the 30th power (1,073,741,824) bytes.
Check out Wiki here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte.
I recommend we clarify documents to indicate we are talking about a GB being
equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes (which is often known as a GiB).
