Examples

• Create a SYSVIEW profile called 'myLPAR' to connect to the SYSVIEW REST API at host lpar123, port 8080, and ssid ABCD:

  • zowe profiles create sysview-profile myLPAR --host lpar123 --port 8080 --user ibmuser --password !@#$^ --ssid ABCD Copy

• You already have a base profile with username and password. Create a SYSVIEW profile to specify host lpar123 and port 8080, using the default ssid of GSVX:

  • zowe profiles create sysview-profile myLPAR2 --host lpar123 --port 8080 Copy

• You already have a base profile to connect to an API Mediation Layer and use SSO tokens. Create a SYSVIEW profile to point to the SYSVIEW REST API by specifying the base path /my-sysview-instance/api/v1:

  • zowe profiles create sysview-profile myLPAR3 --base-path /api/v1/my-sysview-instance Copy
