VMware vSAN has the option to deploy two ESXi hosts in a cluster with a remote witness appliance. We can define specific vSphere HA behaviors for vSAN to validate the VM's individual state. vSphere HA can dictate a particular VM failover action if the virtual machine's components are accessible from a defined partition.
The following is a screenshot of the cluster settings:
