| When reading this chapter, assume you have read the :doc:`Overview of xCAT <../../overview/index>` to understand the architecture and features of xCAT, and have read the :doc:`xCAT Install Guide <../install-guides/index>` to have an xCAT Management Node installed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Now you can start to learn how to manage a cluster by xCAT. This chapter includes following major sections:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * **Basic Concepts**
 | |
| 
 | |
|   This Section will give you the introduction of some basic concepts in xCAT like the **Object Concept**, **Database**, **Global Configuration**, **Network** and **Node Type**.
 | |
| 
 | |
| * **Manage Cluster**
 | |
| 
 | |
|   This is the a major part of xCAT doc. It describes the procedures of how to manage a real cluster. Since the management procedures are different among the hardware type, this section is organized base on the hardware type.
 | |
| 
 | |
| * **Reference**
 | |
| 
 | |
|   This section includes the brief introduction of xCAT commands, the man page of each command and the definition of each xCAT Database table.
 | |
| 
 | |
| * **Large Cluster**
