  - The hostname of the SYSVIEW REST API

- `--port` | `-P` (number)

  - The port number of the SYSVIEW REST API

- `--user` | `-u` (string)

  - Your z/OS username used to authenticate to the SYSVIEW REST API

- `--password` | `--pass` | `--pw` (string)

  - Your z/OS password used to authenticate to the SYSVIEW REST API

- `--reject-unauthorized` | `--ru` (boolean)

  - If set, the server certificate is verified against the list of supplied CAs

- `--ssid` (string)

  - SSID of the SYSVIEW instance. Default value: GSVX

    Default value: GSVX

- `--base-path` | `--bp` (string)

  - The base path for your API mediation layer instance. Do not specify this option if you are not using an API mediation layer.

    Default value: /api/v1

#### Options

- `--overwrite` | `--ow` (boolean)

  - Overwrite the sysview profile when a profile of the same name exists.

- `--disable-defaults` | `--dd` (boolean)

#### 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`

- 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`

- 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 /my-sysview-instance/api/v1`
