How do I delay the start of the FIRST VM or LXC?

I can set a delay but I want even the first one to be delayed.
If my prox server has rebooted, the whole house has rebooted.
If the whole house has rebooted, SMB shares are still booting up, DNS is still firing up.
Anyone know, the info seems hard to find.

Seems silly to have to make a fake dummy VM just to do this.
 
Check out section 3.10.4 of the docs / admin guide :)

Thank you.

For others, I've tested the command from the proxmox shell.

pvenode config set --startall-onboot-delay 10

That's all you need, I googled 30 minutes and no one else has posted that :/ Surprisingl
 
Great! Please don't forget you mark the thread as solved
