"What is High Availability?

High availability is recommended for virtual machines running critical workloads. A highly available virtual machine is automatically restarted, either on its original host or another host in the cluster, if its process is interrupted, such as in the following scenarios:"

I just found out that there is no option for autostart VM's.

This functionality is extremely crucial when a system is going down after a UPS ran out of juice (or that it didn't work when the power failed).

Starting VMs automatically help the recovery process, and editable startup list could help a lot more (for example: if 10 VMs are dependent on AD services, the Windows 2012 should be booted 2nd, right after HE, and then the other machines).

Autostart VM's could help a lot with UPS if the list can go "backward" to power off VMs in a serialized matter, so when a UPS detects a power loss, it could signal the HE to start shutting down VMs by a list.

Any chance to have this feature in 4.3?
