VMware vSphere 7.x Delta — Question 15

A vSphere administrator uses a Dedicated Failover Hosts Admission Control Policy in a cluster. An ESXi host fails and vSphere HA attempts to restart the VMs onto the dedicated failover hosts. The hosts have insufficient resources.
What happens to the VMs?

Answer options

• A. vSphere HA restarts VMs in another cluster.
• B. vSphere HA suspends the VMs until a host is available.
• C. vSphere HA powers down the VMs.
• D. vSphere HA attempts to restart the VMs on other hosts in the cluster.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because vSphere HA will attempt to restart the VMs on other available hosts in the same cluster when the dedicated failover hosts do not have enough resources. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not describe the intended behavior of vSphere HA in this scenario.
