B : not in particular, some might, other might not but not by definition not.
C for sure Ok
D : VM monitoring does not apply to HA failover
So this leaves the second option A, though I’m surprised to see that. Of course the Secondary VM will become the primary. In the lecture manual (vSphere 5/5.1 ICM) on a VM failover condition, first thing what is checked before VMs with HIGH priority are started is to check whether FT secondaries are operational.
