Alternative ways to check SAP HANA health?

Hi,
Are there other ways to check the health of SAP HANA database beside using HANA Studio? This is because our clients are not very convinced that the database health is fine by just looking at the GUI of HANA Studio. For example, in Oracle, we can run certain dynamic views and dbv to check on the database and physical data files. Is there any such similar feature inside SAP HANA?
Thank you.
Regards,
Gan

The documentation contains e.g. the Technical Operations Manual in which different monitoring options are explained (e.g. alerts and the statistics server system views).
Beyond that, SAP Solution Manager provides integration for SAP HANA covering monitoring, health checks and analysis.
Reading the documentation on help.sap.com would have provided these information to you and your clients.
There's plenty of more information available, but giving the lead you just received, I'm optimistic you'll find more yourself using your search engine of trust.

Alternative methods for checking battery health

Model: 8922-A26, 3000 C200
So in the process of trying my hardest to keep a recalcetrant C200 from it's sixth visit to the service centre in less than 11 months of ownership, I am trying to see if there's anything I can do to improve its battery life beyond the pitiful 30min i'm currently getting.
Being a longtime thinkpad customer, I tried all the usual methods including the three-cycle power down and drain trick to recondition the battery, with no solution and ran through all the possible solutions in MIGR-63114 to no success at all.
Except one - verify the health of the unit's battery, an online tool which uses ActiveX applets to work some black magic and tell you if it's pooped or not. However, it seems this tool is broken.
It's not working in either IE6 or 7, and despite prompting you to install all the AX components nothing ever happens no matter how long you leave it. And if sitting around isn't good enough for you, you can stare at the broken image which is supposed to be a progress bar.
Does anyone have any alternative ways of checking the battery health on a C200 or firing off some reconditioning tools to save me being another week without this unit? I don't mind dealing with the phone support group, but i'll be darned if I let the service techs near the unit again because I just know my luck will see them fix or replace the wrong part - for the third time in a row.

I don't believe there is a way but more than likely an Apple Store can check it if there is one nearby.
I've seen a post or two here reporting the same and the solution provided (which claimed to help) was using the iPhone until the battery is depleted causing the iPhone to turn off. Plug it in and allow it to charge completely.
And if you haven't already done so, it can't hurt to Reset and/or Restore your iPhone.

Consuming SAP HANA from ABAP

Dear all!
I am trying to get data FROM HANA into ABAP AS (so an opposite unusual direction ).
What is the best way of connecting them? Can't find any description.
In Simple words: I have an ABAP program. Now i need connect to Hana (RFC, whatever), then from ABAP program send SQL statement into HANA and then get data back.
What is the easiest/best way?
BR, Dmitry

Hello,
please check SAP HANA Database - SQL Script Guide
page 43 - chapter Calling SQLScript from ABAP
https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000604932011
There is nice example how to call SQL Script from ABAP (this also includes calling SELECT statements).

Alternate way to check voicemail?

My LG chocolate touch screen stopped working!! Ugh, I can't make any outgoing calls,check texts or even unlock my phone to get to anything! booooo! Is there an alternative way to check voicemails while I am waiting for my replacement via snail mail?!
Thanks in advance!

Thanks spottedcatfish. One correction to these steps though is necessary. When dialing your wireless number to access your Voice Mail, you would interrupt the Voice Mail greeting by pressing (#), not (*). You will then be prompted to enter your Voice Mail password. Once side note: you are not billed airtime minutes when accessing your Voice Mail in this manner.
Thanks,

Preinstall check failed - Unable to install SAP HANA Client

Hi all,
Recently I had to format my system and after loading the Windows 8 I downloaded the SAP HANA Client, SAP HANA Studio and SAP HANA JDBC Drivers for re-distribution from https://hanadeveditionsapicl.hana.ondemand.com/hanadevedition/ into the default folder which is C:Programfiles:SAP HANA Client and Studio
I installed the client and then the studio and then clicked on the executable ngdbc.jar file and clicked on ok.
Then I went to SAP HANA 70 client win32 folder and clicked on the hdbsetup to load client. I am getting the following error:
Preinstall check failed
SDB::Install::System::getMountPointWin: Malformed file path normalization: "ngdbc.jar"
Can any one please explain what this error is and how do I fix this error. I searched in the forum but could not find anything related to this error.
Thank you.
Regards
Pavan.

I am posting the results of my issues here, to be sure this is documented.
Close all applications
Uninstall SAP/b1 and all related components
Delete folder X:\Program Files\sap
Delete folder X:\Program Files (x86)\sap
Open REGEDIT and clean out all parent keys where "HANA" appears
Install the SAP/b1 client first!
Run the HANA Client installation "...as Administrator"
When the installation runs, it should default to "Install new"
Make sure you set/select the folder path properly to show X:\Program Files\sap\hdbclient
Once the clean-up was finished and the install was restarted, it installed without any issues.
Thanks,

Automate SAP System Health Checks using eCATT

Hello Mates,
Can somebody throw light on the possibility of Automating SAP System Health Checks Using eCATT ?
Are there any readily available scripts within? If so from which version of SAP? or, have they to be custom developed?
Thanks in advance for your time and responses.

Is there I way to check my macbook's fan health or an app for it?

My macbook is getting older, it uses Lion OS though but is there a way to check my fan's life or something?
Thanks!

No. There is no such thing. Either the fans work or they don't work. You can install various hardware monitors that provide information on fan speed and hardware temps, but that's about it. See
Temperature Monitor 4.94
Hardware Monitor 4.95
iStat Menus 3.21
atMonitor 2.7b
And you will find a few others at the Mac App Store.

Currency conversion error in SAP HANA

Hi,
I am new to SAP HANA and learning to create information views in HANA studio (SAP HANA SP6 on Cloudshare, HANA studio 1.0.68). I am trying to create a simple analytic view (on purchaseOrderItem table in SAP_HANA_EPM_DEMO sample database) to have GrossAmount converted to EUR.
I added a calculated column as follows:
When i click on "OK", i get error -
The check box “Calculate before aggregation” has been unchecked, because the definition of the calculated column contains measures with currency conversion, restricted measures or operands with input parameters. For such a calculated column the calculation is always done after the aggregation."
and checkbox "calculate before aggregation" get unchecked. See screenshot below:
Please suggest what could be reason? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Amit

Hi Amit,
If you uncheck the "Calculate before aggregation" checkbox and activate the view, you will see in the generated log that a Calc scenario is created. (a view with /olap wrapper). Due to the calc scenario, the aggregation is defined as the default behavior for the KFs and hence the calculation cannot be done before aggregation.
By the way, I did not understand why do you need calculate before aggregation for a KF which is just a copy of another KF. If you need Gross amount in Local currency and EUR, then just perform the currency conversion without "Calculate before aggregation" checkbox. It will work.

Ravi

How to change the unload priority of a table in SAP HANA?

Hi Experts,
How we can change the unload priority of a table in SAP HANA? I know by default the priority is 5. Is there any way so that we can check the unload priority of a particular table in HANA studio? Is there any SQL statement to get the same?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arindam

Hello Arindam,
Just for the future:
ALTER TABLE - SAP HANA SQL and System Views Reference - SAP Library
To check before hand:
select
table_name, unload_priority from SYS.TABLES
where table_name = '<Your Table>'
To Make the change:
alter table <Your Table>unload priority <Priority You Want>.
As you have asked in the BW on HANA section I assume you're on BW and you could also have checked this with tx SE14.
Hopefully the above gives you everything you need.
Kind Regards,
Amerjit

Import failed when Import a SBO Database in SAP Hana

Hi all,
When I try to import a SBO database Rev 69 to SAP Hana with Rev 74, I receive this error:
SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: table import failed: [30151] Object not found in the import directory;object=SBOCOMMON:ETL_Sen
I guess that the error not have relationship with different Revs. I imported another DB with this Rev and this work.
The import was done in 2 ways:
Script:
IMPORT DATABASE."*" FROM '<directory>' WITH REPLACE
Click right in Database, Import, select directory, select tables, import...
Does anyone know what can be or the solution??
Thanks

SAP HANA D3 Library errors - "queue" is not a function

Hello all,
i have a question regarding D3 Integration into SAP HANA and hope one can help me.
The last days i developed a D3 Choropleth (spatial data) with hover effects, tooltips and a legend. I have an existing SAPUI5 and HANA XS application running and now i wanted to integrate my D3 Choropleth.
1 ) First of all, i added the following tags into the head section of the index.html file of my SAPUI5 project as i need those libaries.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d3js.org/d3.v3.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d3js.org/queue.v1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d3js.org/topojson.v1.min.js"></script>
2) Then, i added the program code of my D3 Choropleth into the view.js of my SAPUI5 project:
var html2 = new sap.ui.core.HTML("d3choropleth", {
                content: "<div class='D3Choropleth'>" + "</div>",
                preferDOM: false,
                afterRendering: function() {
                              .... here is my code ...
I have a SAPUI5 shell with different NavigationItems (tabs) and for this D3 Choropleth tab i am writing:
case "WI_choropleth":
oShell.setContent(html2);
break;
When i start my SAPUI5 project and klick on the tab where the D3 Choropleth should be rendered, i get the following errors:
d3.scale.threshold is not a function
d3.geo.albers center is not a function
queue is not a function
Moreover, i have to say that my D3 Choropleth works standalone outside HANA very well, that is why i assume it is a library integration issue.
In my browsers (firefox) developer console i can see that there is a D3 library loaded by default (as it is one of SAPUI5s components) with the path: sap/ui5/1/resources/sap/ui/thirdparty/D3.js.
BUT this is a really old version of D3 (2.9), the current release is D3 (3.4), so maybe the problem is that the D3 libary that is loaded by default overwrites my integration of D3 (script tag above)?
Does anyone have the same issues and knows how to solve that? Furthermore it seems that the d3 queue library is also not integrated as the error "queue is not a function" occurs and i also ask me how to solve that error.
We have SAP HANA Developer Edition Revision 80 (by AWS), HANA Studio and Client are on revision 73 (64bit).
It would be great if anyone could help me with my issue.
Further question: Is the current release of D3 going to be integrated into the next HANA revision?
Thanks a lot & regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
You are right. The way you integrate the libraries in your code is not the way that will work for HANA XS projects. This is why it doesn't accept the queue function (library is not loaded) and also why the 3.x only D3JS funcitons are not accepted (only the internal D3JS library is loading and these functions were not a part of 2.9 yet).
To integrate third party libraries, you need to add XSJSLIB files to your project. These need to pass the server-side JSLint checks before accepted by the XS engine. (Client-side checks that fail might not count though).
Please see this post from David Brookler for more information.

SAP HANA: IMPORT/EXPORT Views

We can Import/export tables using hdbsql CLI.
But Is there any way by which we can export/import Views(attribute,analytic,calculation) using hdbsql CLI.
I raised above question some days back
SAP HANA: IMPORT/EXPORT Views | SCN
Also while checking on internet I found another link for the same issue:
http://scn.sap.com/thread/2141404
And from experts answers, I came to conclusion that Import/Export Views(Attribute/Analytic/Calculation views)in SAP HANA is not possible through hdbsql CLI/ SQL commands.Now Is there a way where I can confirm this from SAP HANA program management guys?

Lars,
Thanks for the explanation.
What I am trying to achieve is to create an automate script which should export all tables and views for a schema and again import tables and views in a different schema.
table part is done, But stuck in view part.
I tried the below command and was able to export the calculation view which I created in Content and exists as
_SYS_BIC-->Package(same name as schema where all the tables are stored) --> View Name.
Command used was:
EXPORT "<Schema_Name>"."<Package_Name>/<View_Name>" INTO '<path>'
Now I have 2 ques :
1) I am not sure how to import this exported view. I tried below command but it failed:
IMPORT "<Schema_Name>"."<Package_Name>/<View_Name>" FROM '<path>'
2) Not sure how to export and import all the views.
I did IMPORT SCAN of the path as well and found below entries for the exported view in the mentioned path:
SCHEMA_NAME, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE, EXISTS
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/CalculationViewName>", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/AnalyticViewName>", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/CalculationViewName>/olap", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "vwTile1ALLData", "VIEW", 1
Any Inputs would definitely help. Thanks.

_Patch level in SAP HANA Note and _Build No in SAP HANA

Hello Hana Gurus!
I need to know where can I find the patch level in the SAP HANA and SAP HANA Notes
For example, if I want to apply a note
http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1964428
there is specified:
Software Component
Support Package
Patch Level
SAP HANA DATABASE 1.00
SP069
2
SP070
0
Ok. I read a lot of sources and understand the following:
To know the HANA Studio version:
Help->About SAP HANA Studio.
It will be like
Version: 1.0.27
Build id: 201205021925 (361805)
Here 1.0.27 means -> 1.0 version and Revision is 27 and Build No is : 361805
Re: From Studio, how to know the HANA DB Version
That is, if we apply 1964428 note, the system is upgraded to SP069 and SP070. Is that correct?
But what Patch Level means in this (and some other) note (value 2 and 0)?
Where I can check Patch Level in the HANA?
And, what are figures Build No indicate
UPD:
Here Re: Where we can check Patch leveles in HANA? referred to a certain table "M_HOST_CONFIGURATION". But in my system it does not exist. or tell me where to find it?
Message was edited by: Tom Flanagan

Hi Kirisetti,
please findanswers in italics
1)
I understand the database version and the studio version is not the same thing. But why do they match my system (see picture)? Or still the same thing?
By the way, to see the version of the database I used table SYS.M_DATABASE
A revision is released with all HANA components are part of the revision release and not just HANA DB server. So it is always ideal that you have all HANA components on same version as in your case. However is is technically feasible that you are usinga older version of Studio to connect to a newer version of HANA DB server. so Help-> About Studio would give you version of the studio and "select version from SYS.M_DATABASE" gives you version of the HANA DB server.
2)
and for the version and patch level
1.0.69.02 would mean HANA DB is on Revision 69 , patch 02
1.0.70.00 would mean HANA DB is on Revision 70
Soultion for the problem is to update your HANA DB to revision 69, patch 2 or Revision 70.
Did I understand correctly, if the note indicated Patch Level = 0, then we simply speak about updating to Revision, implying that no Patch Level? Or how it can be understood?
I'm assuming here you wish to know if you are downloading the right software for the update.
if there is a patch mentioned it is available as "Mantainence Revision <rev no>.<patch no>" for download and if there is no patch level mentioned(patch level = 0) they is avaliable as "Revision <rev no.>". Also update procedure for both Revision and patch is the same.
3)
Did I understand correctly, the first figure in the Build number (Build id) indicates the Patch Level? How it is possible to interpret the Build number (Build id) more? These figures represent something?
This build number is something that comes out of build repositiory. HANA version mentioned in all notes and guide refer to just the Revision number and patch level currently. You can ignore the build number

Hi,
Am using SAP HANA studio Version: 1.80.3 and have got the ABAP perspective in here.
I am able to connect to the SAP ABAP system via the studio, however when I open the folder, am not able to open the ABAP system folder and see objects.. on expanding the system node, I see nothing!.

Can you please suggest what might be wrong?

SAP HANA: Differences in functionality concering side by side and ERP on HANA scenario

Dear all,
There are two ways to use HANA - on the one hand, I could use it as a main database (ERP on HANA) or, on the other hand, I use it as a secondary database next to a non-HANA database (side by side or "sidecar" solution) for selected matters.
Where are the limitations if I use the side by side solution only? Are there functionalities which I can not use in comparison to the ERP on HANA solution? Or offer both solutions the same functionality but only the way to use HANA is different?
Do you have any clue or any links concerning documentation - till now I wasn't able to find some..
Sincerely Yours
Zapp

Hi Zapp,
You can check the below thread for limitations in SideCar Scenario:
What are the limitations/challenges in HANA sidecar
In addition to these, you will not be able to use ABAP Proxies, ABAP managed database procedures and many other new functionalities that are being added to ECC on HANA.
If you use HANA as a sidecar, you would use it to accelerate only few transactions while with ECC on HANA, many standard transactions have been optimized to use the power of hana
