ProxmoxVE - Startup delay

Problem#

In order to guarantee dependent VMs boot before they are needed, I need to define a delay to wait before booting the top VMs

Solution#

The delays are defined per VM and not per Group.

  • Basic DNS: 60s
    • Allow basic DNS to load correctly and become available as other VMs depends on it.
  • TrueNAS: 60s
    • TrueNAS boots pretty quickly (unlike shutdown), so give it enough time to boot before other VMs.
