====== Administration: Cluster and Cluster Group Management ======
Author: Anna Dowling

  * In the Noc Portal, we have the concept of clusters and cluster groups. Explanations of these domain objects are available in the section: [[onboarding:nocportal:object_model_-_the_basics|Object model: the basics]]
  * In order to manage these domains in the application, an admin view exists. This contains the controller page for all of the main domain objects associated with the Noc Portal.
  * In order to navigate to the admin view, the logged in user must have the role **Administrator** associated with their account. Once they have this role, they will see the link called **manage account** displayed on the main noc portal view:

  * Once the user clicks this link they will be taken to the following view:

  * In the list displayed there is a link to the **Cluster Management** view and the **Cluster Group Management** view as demonstrated.
