Is there an argument for QEMU VM start up order?

I see there is an argument startup for LXC, however I cannot seem to find any related argument for VMs in the docs.

I've tried using the same startup argument for VMs and Terraform returns Unsupported argument.

Have a look at https://github.com/Telmate/terraform-provider-proxmox/blob/master/docs/resources/vm_qemu.md#top-level-block for the option onboot

Hi @BaldFabi,

I did find the onboot option, however that is only a boolean whether to start the VM or not, there seems to be no option to set the startup order and delay, as there is with LXC.

You can see here the option which I am talking about is called startup, and it is supplementary to the onboot option.

Yes you're right. I misinterpreted the documention. As far as I know it's currently impossible. It could be implemented if the api provides it.

It seems that the option is there for both POST and PUT, according to the API docs.

I'm currently experimenting with this locally. I have no Go experience, but if I'm not mistaken it seems like only a few lines of code to implement it. If I can get it working, I'll submit a PR sometime this week.
