Gaurav Aradhye commented on CLOUDSTACK-6446:
--------------------------------------------

I am suggesting a change only in the APIs which fetch data from DB and do no insert operation. Only the List APIs can be modified.
Does current implementation store the size in GB itself in the database? I believe it is storing in bytes and converting to GB while listing.

Also, right now, the size of template is returned in bytes. I expect list APIs to return the values in same format.

> The APIs listing the primary and secondary storage counts show the count in GB. In case when the resource usage is much smaller, in KBs or MBs, it is being shown as 0 GB.
> Rather than listing this in GBs, it should be shown in Bytes just like "size" of any resource is listed in KBs.
> We can later convert this into any other unit we want, e.g. if UI wants to show that in GB, it can convert it into GB and then display.
> For test cases purpose, it's very important that exact count is shown in Bytes.
