"ecs-sync-ctl --status" - show 'Bytes Completed' in fixed multiplier

[kh-dell]

When the 'ecs-sync-ctl --status x" command is run, it performs auto-formatting of the 'Bytes Completed' number. The scale changes automatically through KB, MG, GB, TB, etc. Once the value hits TB, the rounding makes it difficult to determine the granular change, between different runs of the command - like in a script.
Is there a way to have an additional parameter on the '--status' option, to fix the capacity in GB only? Or any other requested multiplier.

@kh-dell This would need a code change to fix in G but I guess it's not recommended, as T is not a very large sizing unit for lots of customers. Could I know if anything else critical you want to know besides whether the migration is making progress? The results coming from "Object Completed" and "Current BW" would help monitoring.

@dunedodo Appreciate the feedback (I missed the comment - Github didn't notify me). If it could be added as a switch, then that might be useful. Understood re the other metrics, but this particular customer is being picky. We have a 1.1PB pool to copy shortly and they love 1 hour stats. I have a script doing that for them, but they keep getting hung up on the fact that the capacity copied becomes a stepped output once we hit the bigger numbers.

@kh-dell We truly appreciate your input—it helps us improve the product for everyone. We’ll be discussing the feasibility of adding this feature internally, and it's possible it could be considered for an upcoming release, not the very next one, potentially the one following it. Our development process is currently structured around sprint planning rather than fixed release cycles, so timelines are more fluid at the moment. We’ll keep you updated as things progress. Please keep the ideas coming!
