Attention for SAP Note 2684254:

Hints or values not yet handled by saptune. So please read carefully, check and set manually, if
needed:

# IBM EnergyScale for POWER8 Processor-Based Systems (applies to IBM Power systems only) - not
handled by saptune!

# Intel Cluster-On-Die (COD) / sub-NUMA clustering technology

# HANA is not supported neither on Intel Cluster-On-Die (COD) technology nor on sub-NUMA
clustering technology.

Attention for SAP Note 2382421:

Hints or values not yet handled by saptune. So please read carefully, check and set manually, if
needed:

# SAP HANA Parameters - all '.ini' file changes - not handled by saptune

# net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range

# As HANA uses a considerable number of connections for the internal

# communication, it makes sense to have as many client ports available as

# possible for this purpose.

# At the same time, you need to ensure that you explicitly exclude the ports

# used by processes and applications which bind to specific ports by adjusting

# parameter net.ipv4.ip_local_reserved_ports accordingly.

8
Installation guide S4 Customer System

# If configured correctly, the SAP Host Agent takes care of adjusting this

# parameter and setting it manually is neither recommended nor required.

# The SAP Host Agent typically increases the port range typically to 9000-65499.

# If your port range is significantly different, for example when your lower

# port range starts with port 40000, please check the SAP Host Agent section

# net.ipv4.ip_local_reserved_ports

# This parameter specifies the ports which are reserved for known applications.

# You especially also have to specify the standard ports that are used by the

# SAP HANA. To find out which standard ports are used by your SAP HANA please

# refer to SAP Note 2477204.

# Ports listed in this parameter will not be used by automatic port assignment,

# while explicit port allocation behavior is unchanged.

# If configured correctly, the SAP Host Agent takes care of the standard ports

# used by SAP HANA if the instance numbers are provided accordingly. Setting

# this configuration manually is neither recommended nor required.

# net.ipv4.tcp_wmem and net.ipv4.tcp_rmem

# These parameters specify the minimum, default and maximum size of the TCP

# send and receive buffer.

# They are mostly relevant for system replication scenarios with a latency

# higher than usual.

# The maximum value should be equal to at least the bandwidth delay product of

# the relevant connection.

# Both, tcp_wmem and tcp_rmem, are specified as three values separated by

# blanks: minimum, default and maximum buffer size.

# Preconditions for these settings to take effect are:

# * net.core.wmem_max and net.core.rmem_max must not be lower than the

# respective maximum value.

# * TCP window scaling has been enabled by setting net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=1

9
Installation guide S4 Customer System

# Example:

# net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 16384 4194304

# In this example, the current maximum is 4 MB. Given a 10 GBit/s connection

# with a latency of 1 ms, the required maximum would be

# 10 GBit/s * 1ms = 1.25 Mbytes, therefore the current setting is fine.

# If you want to saturate a 1 Gbit/s connection with a latency of 100 ms, the

# required maximum is 1 GBit/s * 100 ms = 12.5 Mbyte, so in this case the

# setting should be adjusted to at least 12.5 MByte.

# The minimum and the default buffer size do not need to be adjusted.

# net.core.wmem_max and net.core.rmem_max

# These settings define the maximum socket send and receive buffer size.

# To ensure complete functionality it must be ensured that the wmem_max and

# rmem_max values are at least the same as the respective maximum value of the

# parameters net.ipv4.tcp_wmem and net.ipv4.tcp_rmem.

# In landscapes where TCP timestamps are enabled please carefully evaluate if

# the following OS settings can be applied:

# net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse

# This setting allows HANA to reuse a client port immediately after the

# connection has been closed, even though the connection is still in TIME_WAIT

# state. A precondition for it to take effect is that TCP timestamps are

# enabled, i.e. net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1, which is the default on most

# modern systems. Please note that this setting must not be applied if the HANA

# node needs to communicate with hosts behind a NAT firewall. Moreover, it must

# not be applied if not all hosts that use a TCP connection to communicate with

# the HANA node have TCP timestamps enabled. Otherwise you might encounter TCP

# connection issues after applying this configuration parameter.

10
Installation guide S4 Customer System

#net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1

# net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle

# This setting reduces the time a connection spends in the TIME_WAIT state.

# One precondition for it to take effect is that TCP timestamps are enabled,

# i.e. net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1, which is the default on most modern systems.

# Please note that this setting must not be applied if the HANA node has to

# communicate with hosts behind a NAT firewall. Moreover, it must not be

# applied if not all hosts that use a TCP connection to communicate with the

# HANA node have TCP timestamps enabled. Otherwise you might encounter TCP

# connection issues after applying this configuration parameter.

# In case you are running ABAP Application Server instances on Windows, please

# refer to SAP Note 2789262 for further details on possible connection issues.

# Starting from SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 12 SP4 and SLES 15 GA this

# configuration is removed without substitution.

#net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1
