Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description xhu 2012-01-12 09:55:15 UTC
Description of problem:
The unit for bandwidth in block_pull and set_block_job_speed method should be MB/s

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-Sys-Virt-0.9.9-1.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
everytimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
# man /usr/share/man/man3/Sys::Virt::Domain.3pm.gz
...
$dom->set_block_job_speed($path, $bandwidth, $flags=0)
           Change the maximum I/O bandwidth used by the block job that is currently executing for $path. The $bandwidth argument is specified in KB/s
...
$dom->block_pull($path, $bandwith, $flags=0)
           Merge the backing files associated with $path into the top level file. The $bandwidth parameter specifies the maximum I/O rate to allow in
           KB/s.
...
2.
set $bandwidth=1 and use $dom->block_pull($path, $bandwith, $flags=0) to start block pull

3. check the bandwith
# virsh blockjob tck /var/cache/libvirt-tck/storage-fs/tck/tck-main --info
Block Pull: [ 12 %]    Bandwidth limit: 2 MB/s

Actual results:
The unit for bandwidth in block_pull and set_block_job_speed method is KB/s

Expected results:
The unit for bandwidth in block_pull and set_block_job_speed method should be MB/s
