datacenter

Use runpodctl to list Runpod data centers, review their locations, and inspect current GPU availability from the command line.

List the datacenters you can deploy to and their regions.

Command

runpodctl datacenter <subcommand> [flags]

Alias

You can use dc as a shorthand for datacenter:

runpodctl dc list

Subcommands

List datacenters

List the datacenters you can deploy to, with GPU availability in each one. Datacenters that aren’t open for deployment aren’t listed:

runpodctl datacenter list

Example output

[
  {
    "gpuAvailability": [
      {
        "displayName": "RTX 4090",
        "gpuId": "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090",
        "stockStatus": "High"
      }
    ],
    "id": "US-GA-1",
    "location": "NORTH_AMERICA",
    "name": "US-GA-1"
  },
  {
    "gpuAvailability": [
      {
        "displayName": "A100 PCIe",
        "gpuId": "NVIDIA A100 80GB PCIe",
        "stockStatus": "High"
      }
    ],
    "id": "EU-RO-1",
    "location": "EUROPE",
    "name": "EU-RO-1"
  }
]

The location field is the datacenter’s region, such as NORTH_AMERICA, EUROPE, or ASIA.

Using datacenter IDs

When creating network volumes or specifying preferred datacenters for Pods, use the datacenter ID:

# Create a network volume in a specific datacenter
runpodctl network-volume create --name "my-volume" --size 100 --data-center-id "US-GA-1"

# Create a Pod with preferred datacenter
runpodctl pod create --template-id runpod-torch-v21 --gpu-id "NVIDIA RTX 4090" --data-center-ids "US-GA-1"
