This information is for Palo Alto Networks Telemetry Pipeline, which is a standalone product separate from Palo Alto Networks Cortex XCOR.
After you’ve installed a Core Operator in your Kubernetes cluster or Linux environment, you’ll need to create a Core Instance in that environment before deploying any pipelines.
If you used Pipeline CLI to install your Core Operator in a Kubernetes cluster, use Pipeline CLI to create a Core Instance. If you used Helm to install your Core Operator in a Kubernetes cluster, use Helm to create a Core Instance.If you installed your Core Operator in a Linux environment, use Pipeline CLI to create a Core Instance.
  1. If you’re creating a Core Instance in a Linux environment, set your Linux environment variables.
  2. Run the following command to create a new Core Instance:
    Replace INSTANCE with the name you’d like to give your new Core Instance. To create your Core Instance in a specific namespace, add the --kube-namespace NAMESPACE flag, and replace NAMESPACE with the namespace where you want to create the Core Instance. If you’re using custom certificates or your own certificate authority, add the --no-tls-verify flag.

After you’ve created a Core Instance, you can configure its behavior and begin to create telemetry pipelines. Additionally, you can view and manage your Core Instances in the Palo Alto Networks Telemetry Pipeline web interface.
