But since it is basically paused for that 10 seconds or so, it's clock etc
don't run for that time. How does it address this issue, or does it sync the
clock after resuming it on the other machine?
Since syncing the clock with the host is not recommended for domain
controllers anyway, the possible difference in the clock between the DC and
possibly the two Hyper-V hosts the machine is migrated from and to should not
affect the DC, but the DC (and often DNS, perhaps DHCP and WINS too) does
lose 10 seconds. And I was wondering if it would perhaps sync data with other
DCs wrong after this migration.
