MySQL Cluster Manager

The chapters thus far have described the internals of MySQL NDB Cluster and how to manage it by directly working with the binaries, configuration files, etc. There is another way to manage clusters though—by using MySQL Cluster Manager, which is also often abbreviated MCM. MySQL Cluster Manager is an enterprise offering that makes it considerably simpler to manage a cluster. It is only available with the MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade Edition subscription as well as a 30-day trial (see https://www.mysql.com/trials/ ). This chapter provides a tutorial to MySQL Cluster Manager.
