vSphere 6.5 HA Orchestrated

Hello, I would have a question about vSphere 6.5 HA Orchestrated. I have a 2-node cluster. The vcenter is a vm (vcsa).In case of failure of both nodes at the same time the vm re start according to the order of HA Orchestrated or they start in random order?

Thank you

the node that comes up 1st in the 2 nodes cluster follows the orchestrates restart approach.

provided the admission control does prevent because of resource availability

The Restart Priority is stored in the HA configuration, so if both host fail and they come back up then the VM restart priority will be adhered to. Just make sure you understand the different settings, as right now when you define priority and leave the settings at default the restart order is only a matter of "restart scheduling order". you need to make sure that you specify when the next group should start accordingly: http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2016/10/19/vsphere-6-5-whats-new-ha/
