Explanation

Option A is correct because in Huawei HyperMetro (dual-active storage) configurations, one site is designated as the Priority site during initial setup. When the heartbeat link fails and the arbitration server resolves the split-brain scenario, the Priority site wins arbitration and continues I/O services while the non-priority site halts to prevent data inconsistency.

This question appears to have only one visible distractor, so a full distractor analysis isn't possible - the other options (likely "Standby," "Secondary," or similar labels) would be wrong because those roles describe lower-precedence nodes that are designed to yield during conflict resolution, not to win it.

Memory tip: Think of "Priority" like a tiebreaker rule in sports - the site designated Priority always gets the deciding vote when the referee (arbitration server) is called in. If you remember that arbitration exists to break ties, the site named "Priority" is the obvious winner.
