[Bug 1516848] [NEW] Volume size units should be in GiB, not GB

 

Public bug reported:

Data size on storage devices is typically measured in GiB (2^30), and
not GB (10^9).

The Cinder community has addressed this issue by changing all of their CLI and Horizon panels to use "GiB"
(see https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1511167)

There are several Nova panels that display/request data sizes that should also be changed for consistency:
Project -> Instances -> Launch Instance
Project -> Instances -> table colums
Project -> Flavors -> Create Flavor
Project -> Flavors -> table columns

** Affects: nova
     Importance: Undecided
