# DatacenterList Ionoscloud introduces the concept of virtual data centers. These are logically separated from one another and allow you to have a self-contained environment for all servers, volumes, networking, and other resources. The goal is to give you the same experience as you would have if you were running your own physical data center. A list of available data centers can be obtained with the following command. ```text knife ionoscloud datacenter list ``` ## Available options: ### Required options: ```text ionoscloud_url: --url URL the Ionoscloud API URL extra_config_file: --extra-config EXTRA_CONFIG_FILE_PATH, -e EXTRA_CONFIG_FILE_PATH path to the additional config file ionoscloud_username: --username USERNAME, -u USERNAME your Ionoscloud username ionoscloud_password: --password PASSWORD, -p PASSWORD your Ionoscloud password ionoscloud_token: --token PASSWORD your Ionoscloud access token ``` ## Example ```text knife ionoscloud datacenter list--url URL --extra-config EXTRA_CONFIG_FILE_PATH --username USERNAME --password PASSWORD --token PASSWORD ```
