No, it was not turned on. This is only in a lab, so it didn't turn it on because I don't have enough RAM in each server to launch all VMs automatically if a host fails. But I do want to be able to bring up select VMs if a host is unavailable. And if I take a host out of service, I want VMs to not show "disconnected".
Will turning on HA prevent this? Perhaps without it VMs are registered with their last host only, as opposed to the cluster?
Thank you!
