No, VMGENID handles snapshotting and cloning of virtual machines, but
it explicitly *doesn't* change on live migration.

The vmclock device addresses the problem of live migration with
precision clocks. The tolerances of a hardware counter (e.g. TSC) are
typically around ±50PPM. A guest will use NTP/PTP/PPS to discipline that
counter against an external source of 'real' time, and track the pre

The vmclock device addresses the problem of live migration with precision
clocks. The tolerances of a hardware counter (e.g. TSC) are typically
around ±50PPM. We use NTP/PTP/PPS to discipline that counter against an
external source of 'real' time, and track the precise frequ
