NetBox version
v3.1.6
Feature type
Change to existing functionality
Proposed functionality
Allow inputting memory with a MB/GB/TB suffix instead of defaulting to MB.
Use case
The use case is to make it easier for users to input the correct amount of memory for the virtual machine.
It is far more common today to input GBs of memory rather than MBs of memory and having to memorize or calculate the correct amount of MBs the wanted GB represent is tedious.
Database changes
None
External dependencies
One method of solving it is by changing the form input field to this https://pypi.org/project/django-sizefield/.
