This command uses a combination of GET and PUT to simulate a PATCH operation. Note the API's sizing constraints: instances and storage size can only be increased (never decreased), the version can only be upgraded (no downgrade), while cores and RAM can be both increased and decreased. Required values to run command: * Cluster Id ## Options ``` -u, --api-url string Override default host URL. If contains placeholder, location will be embedded. Preferred over the config file override 'mariadbv2' and env var 'IONOS_API_URL' (default "https://mariadb.%s.ionos.com") --backup-retention-days int32 Configures how many days cluster backups are retained. Minimum: 1, Maximum: 365 -i, --cluster-id string The unique ID of the Cluster (required) --cols strings Set of columns to be printed on output Available columns: [ClusterId Name DnsName Version Instances State Cores Ram StorageSize Description BackupLocation RetentionDays MaintenanceDay MaintenanceTime LogsEnabled MetricsEnabled DatacenterId LanId Cidr StatusMessage] -c, --config string Configuration file used for authentication (default "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ionosctl/config.yaml") --cores int32 The number of CPU cores per instance. Can be increased or decreased --database string Database for the credentials. Defaults to the cluster's current database -D, --depth int Level of detail for response objects (default 1) -F, --filters strings Limit results to results containing the specified filter:KEY1=VALUE1,KEY2=VALUE2 -f, --force Force command to execute without user input -h, --help Print usage --instances int32 The total number of instances in the cluster (one primary and n-1 secondary). Can only be increased --limit int Maximum number of items to return per request (default 50) -l, --location string Location of the resource to operate on. When unset, list commands query all locations. Can be one of: de/txl, de/fra, es/vit, fr/par, gb/lhr, us/ewr, us/las, us/mci. A facility inside one of these metro regions (e.g. de/fra/1) is also accepted and served by its metro region's endpoint --logs-enabled Enable collection and reporting of logs for this cluster --maintenance-day string Day of the week for the MaintenanceWindow. Must be specified together with --maintenance-time. Can be one of: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday --maintenance-time string Time for the MaintenanceWindow. e.g.: 16:30:59. Must be specified together with --maintenance-day --metrics-enabled Enable collection and reporting of metrics for this cluster -n, --name string The friendly name of your cluster --no-headers Don't print table headers when table output is used --offset int Number of items to skip before starting to collect the results --order-by string Property to order the results by -o, --output string Desired output format [text|json|api-json] (default "text") --password string Password for the database user. Required because the API does not return it on GET requests (minimum length 10) (required) --query string JMESPath query string to filter the output -q, --quiet Quiet output --ram string The amount of memory per instance. e.g. --ram 4, --ram 4GB. Can be increased or decreased --storage-size string The size of the storage per instance. e.g. --storage-size 10GB. Can only be increased -t, --timeout int Timeout in seconds for --wait and other wait operations (default 600) --user string Username for the database user. Defaults to the cluster's current username -v, --verbose count Increase verbosity level [-v, -vv, -vvv] --version string The MariaDB version of your cluster. Downgrades are not supported -w, --wait Wait for the resource to reach AVAILABLE state after the command completes. No-op for list commands ``` ## Examples ``` ionosctl dbaas mariadb-v2 cluster update --location --cluster-id --password --cores 4 --ram 8GB ``` --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

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/tools-cli/subcommands/database-as-a-service/mariadb/v2/cluster/update.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.
