EdgeHostAffinityConfig (schema)
This config allows edge VM to be pinned to a host group. Edge VM to host group affinity rule is
configured to define the placement boundary of Edge VM.
BestEffortRestart policy is also configured on the VM, with the help of a BER_Edge_VM_Tag,
which aligns Edge VM power cycle with the assigned host's maintenance operation.
When edge's current host enters host maintenance mode, Edge VM shall gracefully shut down.
Once the host exits maintenance mode, edge will get powered on, provided there are no other
compatible hosts available in the given host group.
If other hosts are available in the given host group, edge will gracefully shut down once the
current host enters maintenance mode, and shall be powered on upon another compatible host in
the given host group.
