qm-wait:tldr:184e0

The command you provided is written in a syntax that appears to be using the qm command line tool. Without more context, it's difficult to provide a precise explanation. However, I can give a general understanding of the command.

The qm command is commonly associated with Proxmox VE, a virtualization environment based on KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine). It allows managing virtual machines (VMs) on a Proxmox hypervisor.

Explanation of the command:

• qm is the command used to interact with the virtual machines in Proxmox VE.
• wait is a subcommand that instructs qm to wait for a specific condition.
• --timeout is an option used to set the time limit for waiting.
• ${10} is a placeholder for the timeout value. In shell scripting, variables are referenced using the $ symbol, followed by the variable name or index.
• ${vm_id} is another variable placeholder that likely represents the ID of a specific virtual machine.

Overall, the command is telling Proxmox to wait for a certain period of time (specified by the ${10} variable) for a specific condition associated with the virtual machine specified by ${vm_id}.
