VMware vSphere 8.x Professional — Question 93

A vSphere cluster hosts a three-tier application. The cluster has 50% resources available. If a host in the cluster fails, the database server must be online before the application server, and the appli-cation server must be online before the Web server.

Which feature can be used to meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Predictive DRS
• B. vSphere HA Orchestrated Restart
• C. vSphere HA Restart Priority
• D. Proactive HA

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, vSphere HA Orchestrated Restart, as it allows for the controlled sequencing of virtual machine restarts based on dependencies. Options A and D do not provide orchestration for startup order, and while C, vSphere HA Restart Priority, allows for prioritizing VMs, it does not enforce the specific start order required by the scenario.
