An administrator needs to upgrade AOS in a vSphere-based NutaniSJve-node cluster with no automatic live migration. VMs have neither affinity nor anti-affinity rules configured.
What will happen to VMs during the AOS upgrade?
A.
VMs will be rebooted on other hosts.
B.
VMs will continue to run on the same host.
C.
Upgrade fails because host can't go in maintenance mode.
D.
AOS automatically live migrate VMs to other hosts.
When upgrading AOS in a vSphere-based Nutanix cluster with no automatic live migration, the VMs will continue to run on the same host, providing that the VMs have neither affinity nor anti-affinity rules configured. The upgrade process will put the host into maintenance mode, which will cause the VMs running on that host to be suspended temporarily. Once the AOS upgrade is completed, the host will be taken out of maintenance mode, and the VMs will be resumed, but running on the same host. The AOS upgrade process does not automatically live migrate VMs to other hosts, because the automatic live migration feature is not enabled in the cluster.
