MVPvCMP Hosts don't need to be an HA pair. They will act as your hypervisor, providing physical resources and physical network connectivity to the Guest instances you're virtualizing on top.
If no HA VLAN is tagged, I would suspect HA between your Guests was built via management interface. You can check this by going into "Device Management > Devices" menu and checking ConfigSync, Mirroring and Failover IP's for both "self" and "peer" objects.
