How does this network failure impact VM01?

A virtual machine named VM01 is running on Host01 on a four-node vSAN cluster. vSphere HA is enabled for the cluster. vSphere HA host isolation response is set to Power off and restart VMs. VM01 has a storage policy assigned to it that contains the rule Primary level of failures to tolerate = 1.
A network failure occurs that causes a vSAN network partition. Host01 is isolated from the rest of the cluster. The other three nores are NOT affected by the network failure.
How does this network failure impact VM01?
A. vSphere HA attempts to restart VM01 on Host01 after the number of minutes configured in the VSAN ClomRepairDelay advanced setting has elapsed.
B. vSphere HA immediately attempts to restart VM01 on Host01.
C. vSAN rebuilds all components that belong to VM01 on other nodes in the cluster. After the rebuild is complete vSphere HA attempts to restart VM01 on a node other than Host01.
D. vSphere HA powers off Vm01 and attempts to restart it on a node other than Host01.

  1. Correct Answer: D
    Host isolation response determines what happens when a host in a vSphere HA cluster loses its management network connections, but continues to run. You can
    use the isolation response to have vSphere HA power off virtual machines that are running on an isolated host and restart them on a nonisolated host.
