1. Registered EKS, GKE and AKS clusters have the same options available as EKS, GKE and AKS clusters created from the Rancher UI. The difference is that when a registered cluster is deleted from the Rancher UI, it is not destroyed.

2. Cluster configuration options can't be edited for registered clusters, except for K3s and RKE2 clusters.

3. For registered cluster nodes, the Rancher UI exposes the ability to cordon, drain, and edit the node.

4. For registered clusters using etcd as a control plane, snapshots must be taken manually outside of the Rancher UI to use for backup and recovery.
