We discuss the interaction of supermassive black holes with the cluster environment. Hot cluster gas, the dominant baryonic component in clusters, provides a record of activity of AGN/supermassive black holes within the cluster. The hot gas shows evidence of shocks and buoyant bubbles of relativistic plasma, both produced by supermassive black hole outbursts. In addition, filamentary structures seen in the X-ray gas distribution show a complex relation between the AGN produced plasma and the thermal gas. We focus on the Chandra observations of Perseus, M87 and other clusters that show evidence for outbursts with energies up to 1062 ergs.
