A host failure occurs in vSphere HA cluster, but virtual machines from the failed host are not restarted on the surviving nodes in the cluster.

The correct answers should be B & C since they make the most sense.

D should be host monitoring.

B makes no sense – if a single host is down and it’s VM’s don’t start up due to anti-affinity rules, they wouldn’t have all been on the same host that failed in the first place.

I tested this case in lab, B & C are correct, even if you have disabled host monitoring you can enable VM monitoring and VM will be restarted.
When I set rule for VM to run on specific host and when this host went down VM didn’t started up.

A WRONG, no VM should be placed on a designated failover host
B WRONG, anti-affinity is a DRS rules, the question is about an HA cluster, not HA/DRS cluster
C CORRECT, VM can override cluster setting for HA (and DRS)
D CORRECT, Host Monitoring needs to be enabled for the HA to vMotion VMs
