Course > Course Statistics > File Storage does not display correct "Allotted storage" amount

Canvas

This behavior has been resolved and deployed to the production environment as of 7/17/24.

Description

In Course > Course Statistics > File Storage, the Allotted storage amount says it is in Megabytes but instead it is Mebibytes. This number should match the quota listed at the bottom of Files

Expected Behavior

The Allotted Storage amount is in Megabytes/Gigabytes, and matches the conversion from 2 and the maximum amount listed in Files

Workaround

No workaround exists at this time.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Have a course

  2. Go to a rails console, and check course.quota. Convert this into Megabytes/Gigabytes (depending how large the quota is)

  3. Go to Course Statistics > File Storage

  4. Compare the Allotted Storage amount with the amount from #2 AND with the maximum amount listed at the bottom of Files
