# Clusters
A cluster is a logical grouping of physical resources within which [virtual machines](./virtualmachine.md) run. Physical [devices](../dcim/device.md) may be associated with clusters as hosts. This allows users to track on which host(s) a particular virtual machine may reside.
## Fields

### Type
The [cluster type](./clustertype.md) assigned for this cluster.
### Group

!!! tip
Additional statuses may be defined by setting `Cluster.status` under the [`FIELD_CHOICES`](../../configuration/data-validation.md#field_choices) configuration parameter.
### Scope

The [region](../dcim/region.md), [site](../dcim/site.md), [site group](../dcim/sitegroup.md) or [location](../dcim/location.md) with which this cluster is associated.
