Chart units

SUSE Observability

This page contains all units supported by charts. For every unit first the description of the unit is mentioned, followed by the name of the unit that should be used in the SUSE Observability APIs. For example to get a value displayed in "Scientific notation" use sci as the value for the unit in a metric binding.

The rendering of the unit automatically adjusts to the size of the value. For example if the unit for a chart is bytes the value is interpretted as bytes(IEC). A value of 100 will be rendered as 100B, but a value of 5242880 (5*1024*1024) will be shown as 5MiB.
