i've tested this a little further... logged into vbr-vsa and run the omicli manually with all the different Parameters and options...
i also enabled
winrm set winrm/config/service/auth '@{Basic="false"}'
and
winrm set winrm/config/service '@{AllowUnencrypted="false"}'
to test different thing with basic and unencrypted authentication..
i've created a local user on my Hyper-V to test with... this worked at some point with the basic/unencrypted settings...
after that worked a created another domain-joined user with the same simple password to test with.
from the omicli i didn't get this domain-joined user to work. but from VBR Console i was able to add the cluster then with the newly created domain user, using "UPN-Style" ... (this user was just added as local admin on the cluster-owner node)
my best-case assumption right now is that my service account has some special character in the password that might break the connection! because even using the upn-style (usename@fqdn) does not work but the newly created user does... and there shouldn't be any differences...
