Many thanks to:
gsswzt, Luca, Andrej, Fred, Karli, Ondra and Bohdan for their replies.
A number of people mentioned the need to specify a CA cert, but curl was
able to find my organizations CA locally - so that was not an issue.
Correcting my url to include ovirt-engine in the path and my username to
admin@internal as suggested by Andrej as per below:
curl --user "admin@internal:SECRETPASSWORD" --request POST --header
"Content-Type: application/xml" --header "Accept: application/xml"
--data
'</action>'
https://ovirt-engine.localnet:443/ovirt-engine/api/vms/69c47a91-bbv1-4eda...
Got me a new error message:
