Unit Sizes

PreviousYAML Configuration FileNextMultiline Parsing

Last updated 1 year ago

Certain configuration directives in Calyptia Core Agent refer to unit sizes such as when defining the size of a buffer or specific limits, we can find these in plugins like , or in generic properties like .

Starting from Calyptia Core Agent v0.11.10, all unit sizes have been standardized across the core and plugins, the following table describes the options that can be used and what they mean:

Suffix
Description
Example

When a suffix is not specified, it's assumed that the value given is a bytes representation.

Specifying a value of 32000, means 32000 bytes

k, K, KB, kb

Kilobyte: a unit of memory equal to 1,000 bytes.

32k means 32000 bytes.

m, M, MB, mb

Megabyte: a unit of memory equal to 1,000,000 bytes

1M means 1000000 bytes

g, G, GB, gb

Gigabyte: a unit of memory equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes

1G means 1000000000 bytes
