>
> For Windows guests, time is initially driven from the control domain clock.
> However, XenServer also stores for each Windows VM a time offset. This
> represents the difference between the control domain time and the guest, and
> is persisted for each VM. if you manually set a VM to be 2 hours ahead of the
> control domain (e.g. via a time-zone offset within the guest), then it will
> remember that.
> This information is stored by Xenserver in the parameter "platform" in a
> key/value pair where the key is "timeoffset". You can check this using "xe
> vm-param-list uuid=<vmuuid>".
> This information is persisted with Xenserver until the VM exists. The problem
> is that Cloudstack stop VM operation is really a destroy on Xenserver. When
> you start the VM again a new VM is launched (of course using the same disk).
> In this process the above information is lost as Cloudstack doesn't store it
> and pass it on to the hypervisor when launching the VM.
