Description

### problem

Cloudstack should validate if OOBM is enabled before enabling HA on the KVM host

### versions

ACS 4.22.1

Currently there are 2 type os HA Host ha and vm ha.

Many users think by enabling host ha they achieve vm ha also

Currently, the host ha can be enabled without cross checking if the OOBM is enabled

Cloudstack should not allow to enable host ha if the OOBM is not enabled or configured

### What to do about it?

We can check if oobm is enabled for the host via the api and provide a pop up to the admin user to enable it they try to enable host ha

Cloudstack should not allow to enable host ha if the OOBM is not enabled or configured
