Celerra XML API returning 1 MB less value for the volume size

Hi,
It has been observed that the size of the volume, reported by the Celerra XML API, is 1 MB less than the size shown in the Celerra Manager GUI.
Is this a known issue or is there any overhead involved?

Here is the API output:
size=" 2047" type="disk" volume="3">


size=" 2047" type="disk" volume="4">



The above size values are in MB.
While the Celerra manager GUI shows the size as 2GB for both d3 as well as d4.
So size reported by the API is 1MB less. Any reason?

This behavior is same for NSX as well as NS.

no overhead, just simple math, using 1024 instead of 1000 as factor between MB and GB

2047 MB / 1024 = 1,9990 GB or if you round this it is the displayed 2,0 GB

a better example is a even bigger volume:
136407 / 1024 = 133,2 GB ...
