# View MariaDB Clusters
Learn how to view MariaDB v2 cluster instances, DNS name, resources, backup, and maintenance details in the DCD on IONOS Cloud
After successfully configuring your MariaDB clusters, you can view their details, modify them, or delete a specific cluster if it is no longer required.
To view the MariaDB details, follow these steps:
* In the **DCD**, go to **Menu** > **Databases** > **MariaDB**. A list of all MariaDB clusters is displayed.
{% hint style="success" %}
**Result:** You can view the total number of resources allocated and the list of all clusters in addition to the following details:
* **NAME:** Displays the name of the cluster. Select the name of the cluster to view its [details](#view-individual-cluster-details).
* **STATE:** Displays the state of the respective cluster:
* **PROVISIONING:** When the cluster is being created.
* **AVAILABLE:** When the cluster is available and running normally.
* **UPDATING:** When the cluster is being updated. For example, after modifying its details.
* **DESTROYING:** When the cluster is being deleted.
* **FAILED:** An error occurred.
* **LOCATION:** Displays the location where the cluster is located.
* **INSTANCES:** Displays the number of instances.
* **VERSION:** The MariaDB version selected during cluster creation.
* **OPTIONS:** Select  to perform the following:
* **Details:** Select to view the [details](#view-individual-cluster-details) of the respective cluster.
* **Edit:** Select to edit the respective cluster. For more information, see [Update a MariaDB Cluster](/cloud/databases/mariadb/how-tos/v2/update-mariadb-cluster.md).
* **Delete:** Select to delete the corresponding cluster. In the dialog box that appears, select **Delete** to confirm deletion. For more information, see [Delete a MariaDB Cluster](/cloud/databases/mariadb/how-tos/v2/delete-mariadb-cluster.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.ionos.com/cloud/databases/mariadb/how-tos/v2/view-mariadb-clusters.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
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.
