Which happens if the swap file of a virtual machine is inaccessible to the destination host during a vMotion?
A. The swap file is stored with the virtual machine configuration file.
B. The swap fileis copied to the destination host.
C. The vMotion will fail.
D. The swap file is replicated to a datastore accessible by both hosts.
The location of the virtual machine swap file affects vMotion compatibility as follows:
For migrations between hosts running ESXi 5.5 and later, vMotion and migrations of suspended and powered-off virtual machines are allowed.
During a migration with vMotion, if the swap file location on the destination host differs from the swap file location on the source host, the swap file is copied to the new location. This activity can result in slower migrations with vMotion. If the destination host cannot access the specified swap file location, it stores the swap file with the virtual machine configuration file.

A is correct, see the link below,
