ESXI (version 7) NFS Share QNAP

Hi,
I have an ESXI (version 7) and for backup purposes NFS share on a QNAP NAS.
The ESXI host boots faster than the NAS, e.g. after a power failure, and then it happens that the host does not mount the share. The ESXI does not make a reconnect either. When I reboot the host, the connection is OK again.

What can I do, somehow delay the ESXI host for 5 minutes, mount a script controlled mount or is there a better way?

What do the experts think, how would you solve the problem?

One option is to check whether the ESXi host's BIOS offers a "Boot Delay" option.
