A licensed appliance VM must always run on a specific host that holds a hardware dongle. Which virtualization control enforces that placement?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Host affinity is a reserved parking spot for that dongle-bound appliance—only the host with the gadget gets the VM. Spreading it everywhere would strand the license. Pin it where the hardware lives.
Full Explanation
Host affinity (or similar placement constraints) keeps a VM on designated hosts when hardware, licensing, or compliance requires it. Autoscaling spread, spot movement, and random DNS resolution work against a fixed host dependency. Affinity is the deliberate control for dongle or specialty-hardware pinning.
