Creating an instance by selecting an OCI partner image

FortiAnalyzer deployment images are listed on OCI's partner image catalog. You can create the instance by pointing to an available image instead of importing one yourself.

1. In OCI, go to Compute > Instances.
2. Select the appropriate compartment from the dropdown menu on the left.
3. Click Create Instance.
4. Name the instance as desired.
5. Under Choose an operating system or image source, click Change Image Source.
6. In the Browse All Images window, go to the Partner Images tab. Select the Fortinet FortiAnalyzer-VM Centralized Logging/Reporting for OCI app. Select the checkbox at the bottom of the window to confirm that you have read and agree to the terms of use, then click Select Image.
   You will return to the instance creation screen.
7. Configure the following settings:
   1. Under Choose instance type, select Virtual Machine.
   2. Under Choose instance shape, select one of the supported instance shapes.
   3. Under Configure boot volume, keep the default values.
   4. Under Configure networking, add your network configuration settings as desired.
8. Click Create. This deploys the FortiAnalyzer-VM instance.
