How does proxmox handle HA if there is not enough ram to restart all VMs on another node?

Just curious, say you lose one or more nodes, and there is not enough ram to run all the VMs on the nodes that are left, or perhaps there's only 1 node left and it's one that has less ram installed, how does proxmox handle this, and how does it prioritize which VM to run, is there a way to influence which ones are more important?
