Optimized phased system update for reduced downtimeSAP HANA server and SAP HANA options

A optimized system update reduces the system downtime for SAP HANA systems that, in addition to the SAP HANA database server, also run one or more of the supported SAP HANA options. In the past, SAP HANA system update performed the checks, binary switch and restart for each component consecutively, extending the system downtime. With SAP HANA SPS 11, the checks, and binary switches are performed for each component at the same time, and all components are restarted together. This process is graphically represented on the next slide.

The optimized system update can be combined with the two-phase reduced downtime update released with SPS 10.

The following components support optimized update:– SAP HANA server– SAP HANA accelerator for SAP ASE– SAP HANA remote data sync– SAP HANA smart data streaming

The optimized update execution mode is enabled by default if more than one of the above components is selected to be installed or updated.

Support for XS advanced runtime

• SAP HANA SPS 11 includes an additional, new runtime environment for application development: SAP HANA extended application services (XS), advanced model. For more information about the XS advanced model, see the SAP HANA Developer Guide for SAP HANA XS Advanced Model.

• The XS advanced runtime is handled by the SAP HANA platform lifecycle management tools with the existing host role concept. The XS_WORKER role is by default assigned to all SAP HANA database worker hosts, and the XS_STANDBY role is by default assigned to all SAP HANA database standby hosts.

• In addition to setting host roles, the HDBLCM tool also configures the following:• XS advanced administrator user• Customer organization name• Customer space name

Other Usability Enhancements

Enhancements to inter-service communication configuration– Enable the internal network address parameter when the listen

interface is set to “global” to increase performance– No restart after changing inter-service communication from “global”

to “internal”

Resume action improvements– HDBLCM now stores installation parameters in its own persistence

file so that upon resume the administrator is only asked for passwords.

Server platform check rejects HANA server installations on SLES 11 SP 1– SAP HANA SPS 11 and higher cannot be installed on SLES 11

SP1 due to GCC compiler runtime incompatibilities. For more information, see SAP Note 2228351.

http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/2228351


Other Supportability Enhancements

Installation and update of the new SAP HANA cockpit for offline administration– The SAP HANA cockpit for offline administration is a version of the SAP HANA cockpit that communicates with SAP HANA

using the SAP Host Agent.– You can use it to perform administration tasks, such as starting the system or troubleshooting a system experiencing

performance problems, as operating system user <sid>adm.

Custom configuration (INI files) of the SAP HANA system during installation– Custom configuration can be performed during installation to reduce post-installation configuration and additional system

restarts.– After preparing the INI files, save them to a local directory and run the SAP HANA server installation with HDBLCM on the

command line with the call option --custom_cfg=<path to custom config directory>.

Support of new Eclipse Mac OS file system layout for the SAP HANA studio– The installation path and the file system layout for the SAP HANA studio installation on Mac OS has been changed. The

SAP HANA studio is installed as a Mac OS application. – The default installation path is: /Applications/sap/hdbstudio.app

Description Default

autoadd_xs_roles Assigns xs_worker and xs_standby host roles. By default, the host role xs_worker will be assigned to all worker hosts, the host role xs_standby will be assigned to all standby hosts.

(on)

continue_update Continues the pending update with the persisted parameters. (on)

custom_cfg Specifies the path to the directory in which custom configuration (*.ini) files are saved. ---

extract_components

Extracts content that was downloaded from the SAP Service Marketplace for installation or update. --extract_components --component_archives_dir --extract_temp_dir=<component_archives_dir>/extracted --sapcar_location=<install path>/<SID>/global/hdb/saphostagent_setup/SAPCAR --tar_executable_location=</bin/tar>

import_xs_content Imports SAP HANA XS advanced runtime content. (on)
