How to Keep a Persistent Processor Serial Number (Processor ID) on a VM

Hi All.

I have been asked to create a VM that requires: " Virtual Server needs to be configured to allow the Processor Serial Number (Processor ID) to be persisted. "

The only CPUID-type setting I am aware in a VM configuration is CPUID Mask: Expose the NX/XD flag to guest or not. Is this what they mean with their requirement?

I though that a CPU's ID would be virtual for that VM only and following it if the VM is migrated.

Any thoughts or help is appreciated.
