Start-Up Groups

Has anyone found a way to make a start-up group of multiple VM's in workstation?

See page 223 of the user manual.  "Configure Shared and Remote Virtual Machines to Start with the Host"

Not for shared VM's, for a group of VM's local to the Workstation.  So the group might be three VM's configured to start in a order - similar to a vApp.

Ahh, the old "Teams" feature in prior versions of Workstation.  There's nothing built in to the product - you will need to use vmrun or the Vix API library and script your solution.
