Description:
It was decided some time ago that "correct" nomenclature for nodes running ndbd processes
would be (despite my loud objections to the contrary) referred to as "data nodes" rather
than "storage nodes". In keeping with this, I propose that the system status variable
Ndb_number_of_storage_nodes be renamed "Ndb_number_of_data_nodes" or possibly the more
neutral "Ndb_number_of_NDBDs".

How to repeat:
SHOW STATUS LIKE 'NDB%';

Suggested fix:
See Description.
