Gareth,

Sorry for the late reply. Your JSON file looks fine to me. Nevertheless please 
find below what I am using (successfully).

{
        "brand": "kvm",
        "vcpus": 1,
        "autoboot": false,
        „alias": "whs11",
        "ram": 4096,
        „resolvers": ["172.29.12.7", "8.8.8.8"],
        "disks": [
                {
                        "boot": true,
                        "model": "virtio",
                        "size": 102400
                }
        ],
        "nics": [
                {
                        "nic_tag": "admin",
                        "model": "virtio",
                        "ip": "172.29.12.16",
                        "netmask": "255.255.255.0",
                        "gateway": "172.29.12.1"
                }
        ]
}

Your vmadm command line looks okay too.
"vmadm boot 093499d8-ab9e-4d8d-aa85-4006c883a193 order=cd,once=d 
cdrom=/whs11.iso,ide cdrom=/me-ws2008std-20130417.iso,ide"

Same for the boot log you put on pastebin. It might make sense to test whether 
your iso files are okay. Maybe by trying to boot e.g. a (mini) linux 
distribution?

Best regards,

Peter
