Explanation

If a host's NIC fails permanently, its vSAN and VM network connectivity are affected. To maintain production workload availability, the administrator should perform a live vMotion of all running virtual machines to another healthy host in the cluster. This action ensures continuous VM operation without downtime while the faulty NIC is replaced and the host remains temporarily
