Random time intervals of not less than 30 minutes but almost certainly not more than 8 hours. At least that was my experience.

Yes, you can power the machine back up and continue with the process. The only problem is steps that take a long time COULD be problematic or even result in corruption if a shutdown occurs before they can complete.

Not sure what migration method you're using, but if it's the MS migration documentation, then you have to uninstall Exchange and demote the server ANYWAY. But, that said, there's nothing you can do to get around the limitation - doing so would be violating licensing and we cannot help you violate licensing.

Out side of being in an unlicensed and unsupported state, no, no other problems.
