    Description

      MB-23852 tracks changes in UI and ns_server to use Mib and Mebibytes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte#Multiple-byte_units) as they more accurately describe the memory size values.

      The docs should be updated to also use the more accurate terminology. As an example, here's a case describing ramQuotaMB (which has been renamed to ramQuota - see MB-23852). The doc says:

      The amount of memory to be allocated to the bucket, per node, in mebibytes. The minimum amount is 100 MiB.
