             Summary: Allow for alternate units to be selected when editting 
smart config fields
                 Key: AMBARI-16879
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-16879
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Paul Codding
             Fix For: 3.0.0


It would be preferable to have a choice besides MB when editing "slider" fields 
that deal with sizes that can range from MB's to GB's such as:

* NameNode Java heap size
* DataNode maximum Java heap size

What would be preferable would be two things:

# Round the slider stops to the largest default unit (MB)
# When editing the field, make the unit field a drop-down so that 
(bytes,MB,GB,TB) can be chosen.

With these two enhancements, the sliders will be more usable, and when editing 
it will be more convenient to chose the unit that makes the most sense to the 
operator, for some 2048MB, others 2GB.
