Group of integrated physical servers (hosts) on which the Harvester hypervisor is installed. These servers collectively manage compute, memory, and storage resources to provide an environment for running VMs.

A three-node cluster is required to fully realize the multi-node features of Harvester, particularly high availability. Certain versions of Harvester allow you to create clusters with two management nodes and one [witness node](./advanced/witness.md) (and optionally, one or more worker nodes). You can also create [single-node clusters](./advanced/singlenodeclusters.md) that support most Harvester features (excluding high availability, multi-replica support, and live migration).

Harvester clusters can be imported into and managed by Rancher. Within the Rancher context, an imported Harvester cluster is known as a "managed cluster" or "downstream user cluster" (often abbreviated to "downstream cluster"). The Rancher term refers to any Kubernetes cluster that is connected to a Rancher server.

You can download the installation files from the [Harvester Releases](https://github.com/harvester/harvester/releases) page. The **Downloads** section of the release notes contains links to the ISO files and related artifacts. The following types of ISO files are available:

- **Full ISO**: Contains the core operating system components and all required container images, which are preloaded during installation. You must use a full ISO when installing Harvester behind a firewall or proxy, and in environments without internet connectivity.
- [**Net install ISO**](../install/net-install.md): Contains only the core operating system components. After installation is completed, the operating system pulls all required container images from the internet (mostly from Docker Hub).
