Comment 1 Andy Grover 2012-06-05 23:54:49 UTC 
Instead of listing GiB, would it be preferable to switch to power-of-10 for everything?
Comment 2 Gris Ge 2012-07-17 01:17:29 UTC 
Many software are using GiB now, so please make GiB (2^30) as default and make GB (10^9) as option.
Comment 4 Gris Ge 2013-01-25 03:24:00 UTC 
fcoe-target-utils-2.0rc1.fb16-3.el6.noarch now using KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB.

VERIFY.

Even though, it does not support using KiB format to create LUN: Bug #903909
