Powercli and XMLRPC

Hey Guys,

So our systems at my comapny are in some other language(interface) but have xmlrpc calls to interface with other languages.

I want to be able to write a powercli script that can pull the list of vms for one datacenter by interacting with our internal system which keeps track of each datacenter and its vms in it. I want to be able to pass and recieve xmlrpc calls so I can pull the info.

Is this done reliably on powershell or shall I use viJava to do this?

Please advice.

Please award points if you find my answers helpful Thanks RJ Visit www.rjapproves.com

Calling XMLRPC from PowerShell is not that difficult.

See for example the post called PowerShell and XMLRPC
