Abstract: A cluster control method, a cluster control system, and a terminal device are provided. The method includes: assigning, by a first control terminal, cluster identifications to itself and controlled terminals; sending, by the first control terminal, control instructions to corresponding controlled terminals and/or itself according to the assigned IDs when the first control terminal receives information feedbacked by all the controlled terminals and itself and denoting that ID assignments succeed, wherein the control instructions instruct the corresponding controlled terminals and/or itself to perform corresponding actions. Because the first control terminal sends control instructions to the controlled terminals and/or itself after receiving information feedbacked by the controlled terminals and itself and denoting that ID assignments succeed, and because when the first control terminal fails a second control terminal can update to be a first control terminal, effective and reliable communication between the control terminal and the controlled terminals may be ensured.
