HA Question

Hi,

I have a quick question about VM HA.

Does CloudStack depend on the HA features of the hypervisor or does it
handle VM HA itself?

Thanks!

The "CloudStack" HA feature is outside of the HV.  You really have 3
choices - implement HA in the HV, but disable it in CS; the reverse; or
do nothing for HA.
