NetApp Snapshot Backup
Step 2: Snapshot copies are created on storage layer
Step 1: SnapCreator triggers a SAP HANA global synchronized backup savepoint via hdbsql statement (SAP note 1703435)
Backup in minutes without impact to production
Restore in minutes With the current HANA release a storage
based Snapshot can only be restored, a forward recovery is not possible yet Backup
Volumes
Step 3: Snapshot copies can be replicated asynchronously on storage layer
