Ha and a vm whith local disk

Hey

I was obliged to create a new disk for a vm but on the local disk of the Esxi because i was running out of space on my San.

The System disk of the Vm is on my san, it was a data disk that i create.

The vm is also managed by this Esxi

what will arrive if the Esxi stop running and that HA start

Will the Vm Move on a other Esxi without it local disk or will she stay stopped ?

thanks a lot

Nicolas

vSphere HA will not failover the machine. Shared storage is a requirement for vSphere HA.
