ID: 14417 Title: Service outputs: Render byte-related units using consistent SI/IEC prefixes Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.2.0i1 There are two options for rendering a raw value in bytes as a human-readable number: LI: SI unit prefixes, where the base factor is 1,000 and the unit prefixes are k, M, G, etc. For example, 1,500 B would be rendered as 1.5 kB. LI: IEC unit prefixes, where the base factor is 1,024 and the unit prefixes are Ki, Mi, Gi, etc. For example, 1,500 B would be rendered as 1.46 KiB. Before this werk, Checkmk mixed up these two systems when rendering service outputs by using a base factor of 1,024 in combination with SI unit prefixes. After this werk, Checkmk renders byte-related units in service outputs consistenly: LI: When displaying e.g. "1.23 MB" in a service output, the underlying value in bytes is 1.23 * 1000^2 B. LI: When displaying e.g. "14.7 KiB" in a service output, the underlying value in bytes is 14.7 * 1024 B.
