# Manage a NFS Cluster

Learn how to manage a Network File Storage (NFS) cluster in the DCD. Covers updating cluster name, size, and managing shares on IONOS CLOUD

After creation, you can view the list of Network File Storage (NFS) clusters, modify the settings, or delete an existing cluster if it is not required.

To manage clusters, follow these steps:

1\. In the **DCD**, go to **Menu** > **Backup & Storage** > **Network File Storage**.

2\. Select an existing cluster and do the following to modify the cluster settings:

* Click on the **NAME** of the cluster and select the **Change cluster settings** option in the **Cluster Details** window which will redirect you to the **Change cluster settings** window.

* Select **Edit Cluster** from the **OPTIONS** column and the **Change cluster settings** window is displayed.

3\. Make the necessary modifications in the **Change cluster settings** window. You can only update the **Cluster Name** and its **Size**.

Additionally, you can click the [<mark style="color:blue;">Manage Shares</mark>](/cloud/backup-and-storage/network-file-storage/how-tos/create-nfs-share.md) tab to update the shares. To delete the respective cluster, click **x Delete Cluster**. For more information, see [<mark style="color:blue;">Delete a Network File Storage Cluster</mark>](/cloud/backup-and-storage/network-file-storage/how-tos/delete-nfs-cluster.md).

{% hint style="success" %}
**RESULT:** A message confirms that the cluster update is successful.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.ionos.com/cloud/backup-and-storage/network-file-storage/how-tos/manage-nfs-clusters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
