There are several problems in algorithms which calculate size of host local disk space consumed by a volume-backed instance [1]. Obviously the volume-backed instance does not use the host local disk for the root volume. But these algorithms use root_gb, min_size, size which are not 0 for volume-backed instance. This leads to the problems. Some solutions have been proposed to solve these problems [2]. One problem was even discussed here [3]. However all these solutions are aimed at correcting specific algorithms to allow them to take into account a type of an instance. But this does not affect other algorithms, which also use root_gb as local space size [4]. I.e. other similar problems are retained. I propose to fix all of this by setting 0 for root_gb, min_size, size [5], since 0 is a natural value of these attributes. Any objections?
