VMware vSphere 6.5 Foundations (VCP6.5-DCV) — Question 48

Why are some virtual machines orphaned after rebooting a High Availability (HA) enabled host?

Answer options

• A. The Orphaned virtual machines have HA restart disabled.
• B. The Orphaned virtual machines moved recently and the change did not persist.
• C. The host is attached to failed storage.
• D. The host just came out of maintenance mode.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because if HA restart is disabled for certain virtual machines, they will not automatically restart after the host reboots. Options B, C, and D do not directly relate to the orphaning of virtual machines in the context of HA settings, as they pertain to other issues such as storage failure or maintenance mode rather than HA configuration.
