Startup delay not working

Hi,

I have a VM where the startup delay isn't waiting the set 150 seconds to start.

Other VMs do wait their set delays.

I have a firewall that starts first, and this one needs to start after that's booted & initialized.

What can I do?

Thanks,

Hello JustaGuy,

I have a VM where the startup delay isn't waiting the set 150 seconds to start.

Other VMs do wait their set delays.

I have a firewall that starts first, and this one needs to start after that's booted & initialized.

Note that the delay timer runs after the VM has started and is the waiting time until the next VM starts. In case of order "any" the order is made by VM ID (but it´s recommended to define the order according to your needs).

Oh, so to delay the 2nd in the startup order, I'd need to add the delay to the 1st in the startup order? I'll try that, thanks alot.
