Alrighty!

In case anyone somehow ends up (1) with OpenNebula, and (2) using the xmlrpc API rather than CLI…

- Used [https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/XmlRpc](https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/XmlRpc)
- Used -Debug output to see the methodCall it was creating
- Used the screenshots from [this](https://forum.opennebula.io/t/postman-or-similar-application-for-opennebula-api/3201/6), to figure out the correct schema for the methodCall (i.e. the first parameter (“username:password”) should simple be enclosed in `<value>username:password</value>`, _not_ wrapped in a type
- Constructed the methodCall manually (todo: create function), everything worked!
