Which configuration option allows a VM to be powered on before the rest of the VMs when starting a host?
Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer
Nutanix High Availability (HA) determines the order in which VMs are restarted after a host failure or during host start sequences. Documentation states:
"VM restart priority levels defined in the High Availability policy determine which VMs are restarted first during node recovery or host power-on events." Nutanix HA allows administrators to assign priority levels such as High, Medium, or Low. The system ensures VMs with higher priority power on before other workloads.
Host affinity simply pins VMs to physical hosts and does not control boot order. Agent VMs are infrastructure components and not involved in workload priority. Recovery plans apply only to DR workflows, not standard host restart behavior.
Thus, the correct answer is High Availability.
