2 Prerequisites

2.1 Hardware and Software Requirements

The host needs to be able to support the SAP HANA database plus SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP. Before
installation, carefully estimate the sizing for your system, making sure that the host meets these combined
requirements:
SAP HANA database see section Hardware and Software Requirements in the SAP HANA Server
Installation Guide.
SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP see section Hardware and Software Requirements at http://
service.sap.com/instguides under SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver 7.4 Installation Installation
SAP NetWeaver Systems Installation: Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver NW 7.1 and Higher SAP
HANA Database UNIX ABAP .
For more information on sizing, see SAP Note 1793345 . Note that the host must meet the requirements for
the SAP HANA appliance plus SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP.
The required file systems are created during installation of the SAP HANA database and SAP NetWeaver AS
ABAP. However, if required you can set them up before the installation and specify them during the
installation procedure.
For more information, see section Recommended File System Layout in the SAP HANA Server Installation
Guide.
Operating system:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 as listed in the Product Availability Matrix (PAM) .
For information about installing SLES 11 in an SAP environment, see SAP Note 1310037 . For
information about optimal settings for SLES 11, see SAP Note 1824819 .
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 as listed in the Product Availability Matrix (PAM) .
For general information about installation and configuration of RHEL6 for running SAP applications, see
SAP Note 1496410 . For HANA-specific settings, see SAP Note 2136965 (RHEL6.6) or 2013638

3 Installation and Configuration of SAP
HANA

You need to install the SAP HANA database using the SAP HANA installer (hdblcm) tool. For more information,
see the SAP HANA Server Installation Guide. You also need to configure the SAP HANA maximum memory
settings.

The SAP HANA software installation can only be performed by a SAP Certified Technology Specialist (Edition
2013) SAP HANA Platform Installation. For more information, see the SAP Training and Certification Shop .

Caution
You must use a different SAP system ID (SID) for the SAP HANA database than the one you later specify for the
installation of the SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP.

5 Post-Installation Configuration

5.1 Configuring Memory Settings

Context

This procedure is necessary so that the systems that is, SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP and SAP HANA database
on each host do not compete for memory resources. The exact settings depend on the size of your hosts and the
sizing required for each system, SAP HANA database and SAP Business Suite.

SAP AS ABAP (for the SAP Business Suite) and the SAP HANA database can only run together on one host if the
sizing of ABAP plus the sizing of HANA does not exceed the total size of the HANA server in terms of memory. You
configure the values resulting from the ABAP sizing (see SAP note 1793345 ) with PHYS_MEMSIZE and you
configure the values for the SAP HANA database with GLOBAL_ALLOCATION_LIMIT (see SAP note 1872170 ). If
you have extra memory available, allocate it to the SAP HANA database.

Procedure

1. Change the profile for the SAP HANA database either by using the SAP HANA Administration Console of the
SAP HANA studio or at the command line as follows:
Modify the file global.ini from /usr/sap/<DB_SID>/SYS/global/hdb/custom/config as user
<SID>adm, making sure it looks as follows:

[memorymanager]

global_allocation_limit = <your HANA sizing result>

2. Change the profile for SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP:

a. Log on to the SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP system.
b. Start transaction RZ10.
c. Edit the profile for the primary application server instance.
d. Select Extended maintenance.
e. Set the parameter PHYS_MEMSIZE to a value suitable for your host size.
