Hi,
I have a proxmox ve lab server running half a dozen vm. All VMs are setup to start and shutdown in a specific order. Can someone please confirm that if I ssh onto my proxmox server and issue "restart" command that will:
1. shutdown all VMs as per the order specified in the options
2. restart proxmox server
3. start all VMs in order specified in the options.
Is that correct?
Thanks

I guess you mean reboot command? It will shut them down in the reversed order. So first starting guest will stop last.
2. restart proxmox server
3. start all VMs in order specified in the options.

Proxmox does the shutdown of VMs in reverse order (compared to startup). If you changed the order numbers, it will use the new order for shutdown. All VMs with the same order number are done at the same time (within the workers limit, I think). See the startup settting in the manual for more information.
