An Additional DC as a VM

Hi,

Are there any special requirements for installing an additional domain controller as a hyper-v virtual machine when NICs on the physical server are teamed and the virtual NIC is also created using the teamed interface or it is better to create a virtual NIC using a separate teamed or physical Interface from the Host?

Thanks.

    Aside from any host teaming issues it should be fine to do and nothing special other than unchecking time sync in guest hyper-v integration services.

    Added. Is there anything else that should be checked other than the below?
