Chip Childers commented on CLOUDSTACK-350: ------------------------------------------ The conversion should figure out what the meaningful *summary level* unit should be. For example, I would like to see the number in PBs when it's greater than 1,024 TBs. > Storage stats in admin dashboard are not pragmatic > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-350 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-350 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: David Nalley > Priority: Minor > Attachments: snapshot7.png > > > UI reports storage seemingly at the byte level, with numbers like this: > 105689374720 > Why aren't there units, and if you must use really low level units like > bytes, at least add commas to make it a bit more easily parseable. That said > bytes is a really non-practical unit of measure for a cloud - MB, or even GB > - and in some cases TB would be far more useful. > I'll attach a screenshot -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
