You need to have a SAP HANA Appliance with Linux SLeS 4 SAP
If you have a ScaleOut System the 3PAR, the LUNs need to be formatted and
writeable
Page 4 of 118
Installation of the SAP HANA Database
In this chapter you will get a brief overview of the different Installation options of the
SAP HANA Database and all the Components
Installation with the Unified Installer (SPS6 and below)

The SAP HANA Unified Installer is the method to install a SAP HANA Database with all
needed components when youre running a SAP HANA Database, up to Revision 69. If
youre running a later version, please use the HDBLCM (Next Chapter)
Navigate to the Installation DVD. It is located under /usr/sap/install. The Installation

DVDs Name is a Number. For Example: 51046696
In Case of a Scale-Out Solution, the installation DVD is only located on the first Blade
of the Appliance.
Navigate within the DVD to the setuphana.slmodel

/usr/sap/install/51046696/DATA_UNITS/HANA_IM_LINUX__X86_64
This file needs to be adapted according to your needed installation.
dataPath: /HANA/IMDB-data/<SID> or /hana/data
logPath: /HANA/IMDB-log/<SID> or /hana/log
sapmntPath: /sapmnt or /hana/shared
instanceNumber: <InstanceNo>
sid: <SID>
hdbHost: <fqdn>
timezone <timezone>
To run the installation do: setup.sh /<tmp_install_dir> <name_of_modelfile>

eg:
hana5: #./setup.sh /tmp/hanainst setuphana.slmodel
With the unified Installer The SAP HANA Database, SAP HANA Studio, SAP HANA Client,
HLM and the LM_Structure will be installed in the needed directories.
Page 5 of 118
When youve startet the setup.sh, the Installer will immediately begin to install
your SAP HANA Database. This is the Sample Output you will see during the
Installation:
hana5: /51046696/DATA_UNITS/HANA_IM_LINUX__X86_64
# ./setup.sh /tmp/hanainst_erp slmodel_CHH
Installer location 51046696_sps6/DATA_UNITS/HANA_IM_LINUX__X86_64

Installation with the HDBLCM (Gui)
To install your SAP HANA Database with the Gui Version, you need to have a ScaleUp
(Single Server) or a ScaleOut with EVA-Storage. If you want to install a ScaleOut
System with 3PAR Storage, please use the Chapter SAP HDBLCM (Configfile) as the
ScaleOut System is using the Storage-API and this is not (yet) supported by this
installation routine
Navigate to the base DVD and open the HDBLCM, it is within the Folder
HDB_LCM_LINUX_X86_64
hana5: ./hdblcmgui
In this window you see the files, contained in the base DVD. If you click next youre
going to install or upgrade a system with Revision 70. If you want to modify the
installation and use the latest version, you have to click Add Component Location in
the lower left corner.
Page 7 of 118
Navigate to the folder where you have extracted the rev73 files, check the box saying
include subfolders and hit OK. Afterwards you see that the Versions have changed.
Page 8 of 118
Here you can choose whether you want to Upgrade a System or install a new one. In
my case I have chosen to update a Revision 70 Base Installation called SKF
Page 9 of 118
Check (or uncheck) the components you want to upgrade or install
Page 10 of 118
Enter your credentials
Page 11 of 118
Have a look at the conclusion. If its fine click Update
Page 12 of 118
Follow the progress
Page 13 of 118
After the installation you should see that everything went through without any
problems.
Page 14 of 118
Installation with the HDBLCM (Interactive Console)
To install your SAP HANA Database with the Gui Version, you need to have a ScaleUp
(Single Server) or a ScaleOut with EVA-Storage. If you want to install a ScaleOut
System with 3PAR Storage, please use the Chapter SAP HDBLCM (Configfile) as the
ScaleOut System is using the Storage-API and this is not (yet) supported by this
installation routine
If you do not like GUIs you can do the same thing with the command line of the unix. In
order to do so, navigate to the LCM-Folder and start the hdblcm.
With the option ./hdblcm --help you get an overview of the available commands.
The console-pendant for the Installation I did with the gui-version would be:
--action=update
--component_medium=/folder/of/base/dvd
--component_root=/folder/of/update/location
hana5:/repository/repository_hana/sps7_51047822/51047822/
DATA_UNITS/HDB_LCM_LINUX_X86_64 # ./hdblcm
Choose what you want to do. In this case Install new system
Page 15 of 118
Choose what parts you want to install. Standards are The SAP HANA Database (will
always be installed), the SAP HANA Studio, the SAP HANA Lifecycle Manager (HLM) and
the SAP HANA Client. If you have the business need for installing also the AFL and
LCAPPS you have the option to choose it here.
For further Information what LCAPPS and AFL is, please have a look at the specific
references under http://service.sap.com/hana
Choose the path, where the /hana/shared Directory should be installed. Normally it is
located under /hana/shared, in older Systems it is under /sapmnt
Enter the Name of your System

What is the main purpose for your installed System?
Page 16 of 118
Define where your Data Volumes should be located. In normal case it is located under
/hana/data/SID and you can simply hit <ENTER>
Define where your Log Volumes should be located. In normal case it is located under
/hanas/log/SID and you can simply hit <ENTER>
Enter the Hostmapping for the HLM. If you intend to install the SAP HANA Database on
a other Network, that the outside world connects to the Server, this is needed that the
HLM is working properly. In most cases this can be continued by simply hitting
<ENTER>
Enter and Confirm your sidadm Password
Enter the Location where the Home Directory of the sidadm should be located (Leave it
as it is!)
Define that Login Shell (Leave it as it is)
If you have the business need for having a Specific Linux User ID for your sidadm you
can here change it.
Here you can set the Timezone for your Instance
Page 17 of 118
Enter and Confirm the Password for you SYSTEM Database User
Do you want that the Instance will automatically start after a Machine Reboot? Then
you have to choose yes, if not leave it as it is.

Installation with the HDBLCM (Configuration File)
If you are going to install a ScaleOut Solution, this is the best way how to do it.
Creating the global.ini

If you are using a HP HANA Appliance with 3PAR Storage, you first need to create a
global.ini containing the LUNs of the 3PAR. If youre having an old SAP HANA with
EVA-Storage, you can directly continue to the installation, leaving out the Storage-
Parts.
If you are going to install a SAP HANA ScaleOut System with 3PAR, the Storage API will
be used to mount and organize the Storage. In this example we are going to set up a
2+1 Configuration, which means, we have 2 active Nodes and one StandBy Blade.
For that setup your Storage Expert or an HP Consultant need to name you the LUNs of
the 3PAR which you can use for the Installation. You need 2 LUNs per worker. The
Standby Blade needs no LUN, as it is going to take over the LUNs from the crashed
node.
In this example the WWIDs mapped out of the 3PAR are:

Blade 1 /hana/data 600143801259d5eb0000700000360000
/hana/log 600143801259d5eb00007000003b0000
Blade 2 /hana/data 600143801259d5eb0000700000370000
/hana/log 600143801259d5eb00007000003c0000
Navigate to the folder /hana/shared/install/<SID>/ and create a file which is called

global.ini. You now need to enter the WWIDs beginning with an additional 3.
In this example the global.ini would look like this:
This global.ini would map 2 LUNs per Blade to your installation, with a maximum of
two working blades in total. If you want to install a SAP HANA Database, containing 3
active Blades, you need to add another partition-section, with the number 3
Save that file in the folder /hana/shared/install/<SID>
Page 22 of 118
Installation
To install a SAP HANA Database with a configuration file, you first need to create one.
You can do that by navigating to the HDB_LCM Folder in the Install-DVD and enter:
hana5:/insthana/DATA_UNITS/HDB_LCM_LINUX_X86_64
# ./hdblcm --action=install --
dump_configfile_template=/hana/shared/install/<SID>/confi
gfile_<SID>.cfg
If you are installing a ScaleOut System, your folder /hana/shared/install/<SID> now

contains 2 files. (Just if youre using 3PAR Storage, if youre running EVA, you just have
the configfile_SID.cfg)
A global.ini file and a configfile_SID.cfg
Page 23 of 118
Open the configfile and edit it for your needs:
WARNING: Within the Configfile you will find entries like ${SID} At some times the
installation with the Substitution-Variables wont work. To solve that problem change
them (all of them) to their original name.

To install you SAP HANA Database, navigate to your HDB LCM and start the
hdblcm, with the additional information of the Configfile
# ./hdblcm --
configfile=/hana/shared/install/T73/configfile_t73.cfg
If you didnt enter all the information needed, the Installer will ask you interactively for
the information.
Page 27 of 118
Installation with hdbinst
The easiest installation method is the hdbinst. However, when you choose to install
your Database with that method, you wont have the benefit of an easy Update
Process. This will always just install the specific thing you have chosen and not the
whole landscape. The hdbinst is contained in every component of the HANA. In the
HDB Server, the Studio, the Client and all other Components.
Before using that method, please contact your SAP HANA SAP/HP Consultant to ask
for the risks that may occur.
Nevertheless it is worth sharing, as this is the fastest way of setting up another
Sandbox Instance.
Navigate to the component you want to install (In this case Just the SAP HANA
Database).
hana5:/insthana/DATA_UNITS/HDB_SERVER_LINUX_X86_64 # ll
The hdbinst (here marked in green) is located in every Component of the SAP HANA.
Even with a revision Upgrade, you can Install a complete SAP HANA Database.
Page 28 of 118
hana5:/insthana/DATA_UNITS/HDB_SERVER_LINUX_X86_64
# ./hdbinst
Enter the Values for the Installation (for a more detailed overview, have a look at the
Chapter HDBLCM Interactive Console)
Page 29 of 118
Adding Additional Hosts
In Order to create a real ScaleOut System, you need to add additional hosts. There are
several methods you can choose from, depending on what SPS you are. Please select
a applicable chapter
hanaconfig.sh (SPS5, EVA-Storage)

In case of a ScaleOut Solution you need to add the other Blades as additional Hosts to
your Landscape. In Order to do that navigate to the hanaconfig.sh Script, located
under: /usr/sap/install/51043617/DATA_UNITS/HANA_IM_LINUX__X86_64.
You can run it either as gui-version or as commandline. In Order to run it as gui-Version
enter ./hanaconfig.sh gui. You need to be root in order to start the hanaconfig.sh
Choose HANA Distributed Setup
Page 30 of 118
Choose: Add Additional Host
Page 31 of 118
Fill in the Information needed
Page 32 of 118
When you have more than one HANA Installation, you need to arrange the Storage
Allocation. Double-Click on the number and set the percentage for each Instance.
When youre finished, hit Run.
Page 33 of 118
All Instances where the allocation was changed (previously existing Instances) needs
to be restarted. If you want to continue, choose Yes.
Page 34 of 118
Page 35 of 118
HLM (SPS6 and above, EVA-Storage)
You can either start the HLM in the SAP HANA Studio, or you can simply open it in your
web browser by typing in: https://<ip>:1129/lmsl/HLM/<SID>/ui/
In order to add additional hosts, the hostcontrol needs to be installed on the additional
blades. It is located within the Base-DVD on the first Blade. If you want to have the
actual hostcontrol, you need to download either the .SAR-File or install it with the HLM
(Single Support Package Stack) or you download the .rpm-Package and install it with
Linux-Commands.
Open the Lifecycle Management within your SAP HANA Studio. If prompted, enter the
Password for your SIDadm User.
Page 36 of 118
Klick on Add Additional Host
Enter the Needed Information and click Next
Attention:
Enter the Password for the sapadm. (Beware: The standard-Password after the initial
Setup of the saphostcontrol is empty. Before you can enter the password you need to
change it via passwd in Linux)
Page 37 of 118
Define the Memory-Allocation for the different Instances (If Applicable) and press
Next. If you change the Memory Allocation for existing Instances, these Instances
needs to be restarted.
Page 38 of 118
Check the Conclusion and Press run
You will always get the Message, that other Instances will be restarted. This will just
take place, if you made changes in the Memory-Distribution of the other Instances. If
you didnt make changes there. The prompt will still appear, however, the Instance
wont be restarted.
Follow the Progress.
Page 39 of 118
./hdbaddhost (EVA-Storage)
With this method you can also add hosts to your existing environment. However, this
way is not recommended as the additional host will not be registered in the Landscape
of your SAP HANA System. (You cannot remove it with the HLM of your SAP HANA
Studio, for instance)
WARNING: This Method is not supported for ScaleOut with 3PAR

WARNING: This method is not supported by SAP. Before adding a host with that
method, please contact your SAP representative.
To add the host with this method, navigate to
hana5:/hana/shared/<SID>/global/hdb/install/bin
# ./hdbaddhost
Enter the Credentials of your SIDadm
Define which role your new host should take.

Worker = Active
Standby = Failover Node
Page 40 of 118
HLM (SPS6 and above, 3PAR-Storage)
In order to add additional hosts, the hostcontrol needs to be installed on the additional
blades. It is located within the Base-DVD on the first Blade. If you want to have the
actual hostcontrol, you need to download either the .SAR-File or install it with the HLM
(Single Support Package Stack) or you download the .rpm-Package and install it with
Linux-Commands.
Open the Lifecycle Management within your SAP HANA Studio. If prompted, enter the
Password for your SIDadm User.

Update with hdbupd
The fastest and easiest way to update your SAP HANA ist using the hdbupd function,
contained in every Package (No matter if it is a Base DVD or a Revision Upgrade).
However, this method is not recommended, as this will just update single Components
and not your whole Landscape.
Before updating your System with that method, please contact your SAP
Representative to get additional information and the permission to choose that way of
updating your System.
Navigate to the Revision-File you want to use to upgrade your System and Enter
hana7:/rev/rev74/SAP_HANA_DATABASE # ./hdbupd

Removing SAP HANA Database Instances
At some point you may want to remove previously installed instances from your SAP
HANA Environment. There are two ways of doing that. With the help of the HLM and
with the ./hdbuninst command, located in every Revision.
WARNING: The HLM can only remove Additional Instances and not the last one
located on your System. With the ./hdbuninst command you can remove all instances
located on your SAP HANA Server.
Remove a 2nd Database

When you have installed a 2nd Database with the HLM or the LCM, you can uninstall it
by using the HLM of the SAP HANA Studio, to do so, open the Lifecycle Manager in your
SAP HANA Studio and Choose Remove SAP HANA System
Choose Remove SAP HANA System
Page 89 of 118
Navigate to the Base DVD, most likely located under /hana/shared/install
Page 90 of 118
Enter the Memory Distribution for the remaining instances
Page 91 of 118
Check the conclusion and hit RUN
Remove the last Database

You can remove all instances located on you SAP HANA Server by running
the ./hdbuninst Command. It will show you all parts installed on you SAP HANA Server
and you can choose which one du uninstall.
Navigate to the Base DVD or a Revision you have located on you HANA Server and run
the ./hdbuninst
hana6:/repository/repository_hana/rev74/SAP_HANA_DATABASE
# ./hdbuninst
Page 92 of 118
You get an Overview of all the installed Instances and additional Components like HDB
Studio and HDB Client. You need to uninstall them one by one.
Page 93 of 118
Installing SAP HANA License
When you have installed your SAP HANA Database you have a three month temporary
license without Limitation. After that period your Database will be online, but locked.
All the Data will be stored.
To Install a SAP HANA License open your SAP HANA Studio and Rightclick on the
Instance Name and Choose Properties
Page 94 of 118
In the New Window Choose License
In that screen you will find the Hardware Key, which you need to order a License in the
SAP Portal. When you received your license you can simply click Install License Key
and upload the Textfile youve received.
Page 95 of 118
Backup
You can choose different ways of creating a backup, depending on your Backup
Strategie you need to choose the way which suits your needs best.
Database Filebackup via SAP HANA Studio

To create a Backup via the Studio, open the Studio
On the left hand side, make a right-click on the Instance-Name and say Backup. A
popup will appear.
Page 96 of 118
Here you can specify the Path where the Backup needs to be stored. The standard
location is /usr/sap/<SID>/HDB<InstanceNo>/backup/data.
You can only perform complete Data Backups, and no delta loads.
Page 97 of 118
This is just a summary Screen, here you can see Information about the Instance and
the Destination Path. When you press Finish the Backup will start.
Page 98 of 118
On that Screen you can follow the Process of the ongoing Backup. If you have a Single-
Server Instance, you will see just one Hostname (here: hana6) with the different
Servers. If youre Backing-up a ScaleOut Solution, you will get the Index-Server on all
the different Hosts (here: hana8)
Page 99 of 118
Afterwards you get a conclusion about success or failure of the Backup.
Page 100 of 118
On the Filesystem you can afterwards see the different Files.
Page 101 of 118
Database Filebackup via SAP Script Backup
The SAP provided a Script (Note: 1651055) in order to to scheduled Backups. With the
linux shell script one can create data and configuration backups of the SAP HANA
Database from the linux command line. It can be used for scheduling database
backups.
Parameterization of the Script

SID
SAP System ID of the SAP HANA Database
INSTANCE
Instance Number of the SAP HANA Database
HOSTNAME
Hostname (short hostname, not fully qualified)
BACKUP_BASE_DIRECTORY
Base path into which the backup script will write all backups. Can also be on an NHS
share, but needs to be mounted prior the Backup.
For full parameter list, please have a look to the Documentation which is also provided
within the SAP Note.
To run the script, enter a crontab entry:

./backup.sh p q --retention=7
WARNING: You are only able to run one backup a day. Even though you have entered a
rentention of 7 it will overwrite the backup previously taken today.
Page 102 of 118
Database Backup with Backint Interface
The SAP HANA now supports Backups with the Backint Interface. In Order to perform
backups you need to install the Backup-Agent (e.g. DataProtector 7.3) to the HANA and
set the config-file. After that you can perform Backups directly to the Data Protector
environment.
Filesystem Backup
In Order to have a Backup of the Filesystem-Structure of the SAP HANA Appliance, you
can easily run a script provided by HP. Execute this command on the Server you want
to backup. The backups will be written to /hana/osbackup. In order to create a
consistent backup you may shutdown the HANA Database completely before running
these scripts.
This script will backup the filesystem without the shared filesystem (/sapmnt or
/hana/shared)
/opt/hp-hana/bin/hostbackup.sh
This script will backup the shared filesystem

/opt/hp-hana/bin/sapmntbackup.sh

Update the SAP HANA Studio
Your local SAP HANA Studio can be connected to your SAP HANA Database, in order to
get the actual HANA Revision via Repository from the Server. However, sometimes you
will run into trouble because of Network Problems (Routes, Swtiches, Ports,)
Please be also aware, that you can connect your local SAP HANA Studio just to one
Instance of the Server. So if youre running multiple Instances with different Revision
Numbers, you will always get that Revision installed to which you connect your SAP
HANA Studio to.
The Actual Version of this Example is Revision 72:

Help > About SAP HANA Studio
If your network setup is correct, you can easily update your local SAP HANA Studio. To
do so, open your Studio and Navigate to:
Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites
Page 106 of 118
Depending on your actual Revision you will see here Kepler and other eclipse-based
Download sites. However, you might not reach all of them.
Page 107 of 118
To update the Eclipse part of your SAP HANA Studio, close that Window again and
Choose Help > Check for Updates
Eclipse will now Download the necessary Files from the Internet.
You need to have a Connection to the Internet to do so. You might need to change your
Network Settings if you are using a Proxy-Server
Window > Preferences > General > Network Settings
Page 108 of 118
If there are available Downloads, your SAP HANA Studio will automatically Install it. If
your eclipse part is up to date, you will get this Information.
Now go back to the Available Software Sites under:

Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites
Add a new Software Site.
Enter a desired name and point the Location to your HANA. The Syntax is:
http://<IP>:80<InstNo>/sap/hana/studio. Hit OK.
Page 109 of 118
Click the Reload-Button so that the Studio will connect to your HANA. It will now try to
reach the repository of your Instance.
The Studio now checks the repository of your Instance
If you have a connection to your HANA, this message will be prompted.
Page 110 of 118
This is the error you get, when you have troubles with your network. Please ask your
Network-Specialist, which connection route you need to take (Proxy-Server, direct) in
Order to get access to the repository.
Sometimes you also get that error-message when your Eclipse-Part of your SAP HANA
Studio is not up to date. Please always update Kepler (and sometimes other Web-
Links of Eclipse) first.
Close the Software Site Window and navigate again to Help > Check for Updates
It is checking now the Kepler-Site again (wont find anything new) and the Repository
of the Instance 00
Page 111 of 118
This are the parts which can be updated.
Here you see a summary of what components will be updated in your local SAP HANA
Studio
Page 112 of 118
Accept the Terms and Click Finish.
Your SAP HANA Studio will now Download the Repository from the SAP HANA Server.
This can take some time.
At some part you will get an error message, saying that the content is not signed. Click
OK
Page 113 of 118
The Studio needs a restart, so that the Repository can be loaded.

Processes within the SAP HANA
Nameserver:
The Nameserver is the main dictionary for the SAP HANA. It keeps the servername and
the system catalogue; It also holds the topology of the SAP HANA Database (like the
control file in an Oracle Database).
Preprocessor:
The pre-processor parses the SQL Statements
Indexserver:
The Indexserver is the main server. It is responsible for the Client Connection and for
all the tables but the system tables. The Studio also connects to the Indexserver.
Statisticserver:
In general it is an Indexserver with additional statistic functionality. You can deactivate
the Statistikserver within SPS7. With the help of parametrization, the Indexserver can
takeover the work. (For further Information please have a look at the SAP HANA Master
Guide)
