Question
Refer to the exhibit. An administrator reviews the error in the exhibit then examines the state of the cluster. The administrator finds that the AHV host is up and functional, but the cluster capacity is low. What will happen to the VMs on the host with this Controller VM?
Exhibit
Options
- AThey will reboot onto other nodes in the cluster.
- BThey will shut down and be orphaned on the host.
- CThey will remain on the current host.
- DThey will be shut down unless protected by a Protection Policy.

Explanation
When a Controller VM (CVM) fails on a node, Nutanix's High Availability (HA) mechanism detects the failure. Since the AHV hypervisor host itself is still running, Nutanix can live-migrate or restart the affected VMs on other nodes in the cluster that have functioning CVMs. Even though cluster capacity is low, HA will attempt to evacuate and restart those VMs on remaining healthy nodes to maintain workload continuity. The VMs are not orphaned, shut down, or left in place, because the hypervisor host is operational and cluster-level HA triggers the migration.
