Vmotion is different from HA. With Vmotion the VM is still running and VC oversees the live migration from one host to another. With HA, the host running the VM has failed in some manner and thus one of the other ESX hosts in the cluster will restart it (depending of course on the rules you have set). Once you have configured HA, is it able to run without the VC server being online.

DRS on the other hand is using Vmotion and thus would need the VC server to be online.
