nohup or screen are the way to go if you haven't started the process yet - the earlier captures the output for you in a file, while the latter is more complex and allows you to resume control of the process in a latter connection (learning GNU Screen is really worth it). If you are already running it and you don't want to quit and restart it, though, you can ...

When you say "reboots suddenly", do you mean: The server crashes and reboots? Loses power and reboots? Shuts down gracefully and reboots? The first two instances will lose the running state of any running VMs. In any case, a paused VM has nothing saved to disk and shutting the host machine down will require that the guest VMs are either saved or shut ...

They are not meant to be suspended\paused\isolated because you want your DC's online and healthy but as the official docs you point to say it can be done safely with the proviso that you don't keep one offline for so long that tombstoning leads to lingering objects when it comes back online. I've just had to do something similar to this - fully isolate a DC ...

One of the reasons not to pause or susspend a Domain Controller is that it leaves the database in an open and inconsistent state in memory. When you shut down a DC and turn it back on again, consistency checks are run on the Active Directory database. I don't know if these concerns are valid, but the other areas I can see problems occuring is when they are ...

My money still goes on a hard disk failure. I've had similar things occur in personal Windows desktops. And even an old Sun machine exhibited similar freeze issues. However, I won't claim I dug deep enough into the issue to notice the seconds dropping from a sleeping shell. Regardless, you might want to see if you can get any info out of your RAID ...

If you had incorrectly configured time synchronization and with some VM products when the system is resumed your time might not be updated to real time immediately. If you don't have accurate time you may have some weird authentication problems. I don't believe that pausing/suspending will cause a rollback. That particular issue has more to do with using ...
