That command just asks the management plane to reach out to Palo to grab a device cert . This cert is used for various Palo services such as telemetry and url db updates. The command, and cert fetch, by itself wont impact anything. The only thing to be mindful of would be incase you arent getting URL updates and a URL categorization changed since youre last update.
