VirtualBox Autostart?

I'm configuring a new Arch system running the LTS kernel with zfs to use for running vritualbox VM's

I'm looking at our wiki, and I can see the section about configuring systemd to start vm's, but when I look at the virtualbox manual, one of the changes was an added autostart service which allows virtualbox to manage this, and allows you to delay startup times between VM's

https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#autostart

Our doc does refer to this link, but this isn't working for me. when i try to set the autostartdbpath using vbox manage, i'm getting errors with the config file so it's not liking it at all

I'm looking to use this thing as something of a hypervisor, so the ability to delay start between vm's is kind of critical, and from everything I can find, the option is there. I'm just stuck on how to use it and I was hoping someone might be able to help shed some light?


The other option would be if there's a way to put a delay in the systemd scripts for individual vm's, but I can't seem to get a clear answer on this?
