# View the Associated Servers

IONOS CLOUD VM Auto Scaling: view the list of servers associated with a VM Auto Scaling Group

The VM Auto Scaling Manager displays the list of all servers associated with the selected VM Auto Scaling Group. Each server is given a unique identification string as its name automatically.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The unique identification string is a name and not a server ID. Hence, it cannot be used to retrieve information over the API.
{% endhint %}

To view the associated servers, follow these steps:

1\. In the **DCD**, go to **Menu** > **Network Services** > **Auto Scaling**.

2\. Select the respective VM Auto Scaling Group in **VM Auto Scaling Manager** to view the associated servers.

3\. Select **Servers**.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Result:** The **Servers** tab displays the following:

* **Console:** Select the option to open the remote console and access your VM.
* **Focus Server:** Selecting this option opens the VDC and preselects the server automatically.
  {% 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/network-services/vm-auto-scaling/how-tos/view-vm-auto-scaling-servers.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.
