Managing Pipelines

Limitations and Constraints

• A maximum of 20 pipelines can be created in a data space in a region for an account.
• Pipelines created by the system cannot be edited.
• Pipelines created by the system cannot be deleted.

Creating a Pipeline

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Workspaces > Management. In the workspace list, click the name of the target workspace.
   Figure 1 Workspace management page
   

5. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Threats > Security Analysis. The Security Analysis page is displayed.
   Figure 2 Accessing the Security Analysis tab page
   

6. (Optional) Add a data space. For details, see Adding a Data Space.
7. In the data space navigation tree on the left, click on the right of the data space name and select Create Pipeline.
   Figure 3 Create Pipeline
   

8. On the Create Pipeline page, configure pipeline parameters. For details about the parameters, see Table 1.

   Table 1 Parameters for creating a pipeline

   Parameter	Description
   Data Space	Data space the pipeline belongs to. This parameter is generated by the system by default.
   Pipeline Name	Name of the pipeline. The naming rules are as follows: The name can contain 5 to 63 characters. The name can contain letters, numbers, and hyphens (-). The name cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or contain consecutive hyphens (-). The name must be unique in the data space.
   Shards	The number of shards of the pipeline. The value ranges from 1 to 64. An index can store a large amount of data that exceeds the hardware limits of a node. To solve this problem, Elasticsearch subdivides your index into multiple pieces called shards. When creating an index, you can specify the number of shards as required. Each shard is in itself a fully-functional and independent "index" that can be hosted on any node in the cluster.
   Lifecycle	Lifecycle of data in the pipeline. Value range: 7 to 180
   Description	Remarks on the pipeline. This parameter is optional.

9. Click OK.

   You can click the data space name or next to the data space to view the created pipeline.
