HANA Hierarchies in HANA

Hi Frzz,
We have created Leveled hierarchies in HANA. Now we want to consume these hierarchies in BOBI 4.0.
Could some one please guide me how can i consume HANA hierarchies in IDT while creating universe.
And please let me know if any limitations on HANA hierarchies in BOBI 4.0
Thank you.
Krishna.

Hi Krishna
HANA hierarchies are exposed to OLAP connections, in order to consume them using a relational connection, kindly refer to the below threads:

  • Using AFL BFL and PAL Hana library on Hana Cloud

    Hello HANA Cloud team and developers,
    Please let me know how can we use HANA DB on HANA cloud from with in our Java application for Analytic's.
    We are already using HANA for persistence but now want to leverage the PAL capabilities are well.
    From HANA documentation its clear that there are some steps that need to be followed in order to achieve this such as: creating AFL_WRAPPER_GENERATOR and generating a PAL Procedure etc.
    On HANA Cloud how do we proceed to do this. Or is this available via JNDI or through some other stored procedure that cloud already provides and application can call. HANA Cloud documentation points nothing in this direction so I am clueless. Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi Emil
    I am starting with PAL in SAP Hana cloud Platform.
    Is there any alterations in number of arguments in creating the PAL procedure while working on HCP?
    I find that when I am creating procedure as mentioned in the http://help.sap.com/hana/SAP_HANA_Predictive_Analysis_Library_PAL_en.pdf
    i.e.
    CALL SYS.AFLLANG_WRAPPER_PROCEDURE_CREATE (‘AFLPAL’, ‘AP’,‘<schema_name>’,'<procedure_name>', <signature_table>);
    modified for the HCP i.e.
    CALL "HCP"."HCP_AFL_WRAPPER_GENERATOR"(‘AFLPAL’, ‘AP’,‘<schema_name>’,'<procedure_name>', <signature_table>);
    then it is showing
    Could not execute 'CALL ...'
    SAP DBTech JDBC: [1281]: wrong number or types of parameters in call: too many arguments: line 1 col 102 (at pos 101).
    I am just wondering from where I can get the document regarding PAL in SAP Hana Cloud?
    Please Help me on this Issue.
    Thanks and Regards

  • HANA Studio connection with HANA server in HANA One (Rev 56 and up)

    Dear HANA One Customers,
    You must be aware of our latest HANA One release with HANA SP6 (blog: The specified item was not found. Once you launch a new instance using HANA One Rev 52.1, you can upgrade your instance to HANA Rev 56 or HANA Rev 62. You can do it in steps (Rev 52 -> Rev 56 -> Rev 62) or do directly (Rev 52 -> Rev 62). By the way, Rev 62 is the first HANA 1.0 SP6 release in HANA One. As we recommended, if you upgrade HANA Version to 56 or 62, please upgrade your HANA Studio and HANA Client to the corresponding version.
    If you upgrade to either Rev 56 or Rev 62, you don't need to add any entry to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts to connect HANA Studio to use all the functionality of HANA Studio with HANA in cloud. While HANA One's add-on manager, upgrades. it makes a change in one configuration file (global.ini) for public_hostname_resolution.
    However, if you change IP of your HANA One instance, you need to update this parameter which is described in the Quick Start Guide. The steps are summarized as:
    In the Administration editor of HANA Studio,
    Choose the Configuration tab. A list of all configuration files appears.
    Expand the global.ini configuration file
    Select the section public_hostname_resolution
    Choose Next and enter the values map_hanaserver in the Key field and your IP or public DNS in the Value field.
    For example, set the values as Key: map_hanaserver, Value: xx.xx.xx.xx if you use an IP address including an Elastic IP. If you use DNS as the value it could be ec2-xx-xx-xx-xx.compute-1.amazonaws.com
    With this new feature, the same HANA Studio can connect to many HANA One instances at the same time which was not possible earlier prior to Rev 56.
    Thanks,
    Swapan

    Yes Aleksandr
    I think you are right.
    After doing many installation of HANA Server in differrent AWS instances it didn't work for me.
    But when I installed the HANA Studio on another machine with more RAM it worked.
    I think we have to install HANA Studio on another AWS instance with 16 GB RAM to make it run smoothly.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Are SAP HANA implementations on HANA as a Database or HANA as a Modeling tool

    Hi all,
    I've a general question today about the HANA as a product.
    I want to know if most of the SAP HANA implementations that have been carried out in the last 3 or 4 years, were they mostly on HANA as a InMemory Database product or was it implemented as a Modelling tool. What I understand is most of the implementations on HANA have been done with HANA as a database replacing the customer's existing databases mostly Oracle or SQL Server. There are lots of case studies available on this situation. But I am not able to find any information on the clients who have chosen HANA as a Modelling tool along with HANA as a database.
    In other words I am interested in knowing a rough estimate/number of customers who have implemented SAP HANA Modelling as a tool. Are there any success factors or case studies available giving facts and figures as to how customers have benefited by modelling on HANA. Assuming that the customer/s who have implemented HANA Modelling were on SAP BW 7.0 earlier I want to know how did they benefit by going for HANA Modelling using HANA Studio and why did they move from BW Modelling to HANA Modelling and what were the benefits they have reaped in.
    How is it different from modelling data in BW DSOs and Cubes and MultiProviders,and modelling the same in Attribute Views, Analytic Views, Calculation views and native HANA SQL.
    Please explain.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Pavan.

    A) hana is a database, which combines memory and technology.
    A common hana server has at leaste 128gb ram. why? because the tables (or columns of that tables) are loaded in memory and are consumed from there. Hana uses compresion (1:11 ratio) and use columnar tables, because it speeds up the data reading from the database.
    Hana have 3 parts of storage:
    1) memory (explained above)
    2) data: the disk where data is recorded
    3) log: the disk where the last transactions are logged and it provides with recovery fails
    B) you can have diferents scenearios (I will explain some of them):
    BW on hana: it speeds up the data access due to hana technology
    suite on hana: ERP and BW on hana
    Hana has your DW database: you can use hana like a common database and benefits your organization with the speed of hana.
    hope it helps.
    this image can show you the diferents scenarios

  • What is BW on HANA BW on Hana

    Dear Experts,
    Can you explain me the below. i have a lot of confusion in between
    1.  What is BW on HANA BW on Hana.
    2. Can we replace ECC data base with HANA(instead of traditional database, can we use only HANA data base?)
    3. Standalone HANA
    4. HANA side CAR
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi Prasad,
    There is lot of documents avaialble on SCN for HANA overview.
    HANA is in-memory computer platform used to handle high data volume with accelarated query performance.  HANA can be used as database as well as standalone system.
    1.  What is BW on HANA BW on Hana.
         It typically means BW system will have HANA as database
    2. Can we replace ECC data base with HANA(instead of traditional database, can we use only HANA data base?)
        Yes.
    3. Standalone HANA & 4. HANA side CAR
        Standalone HANA reside beside your system and data is replicated into it.
    You will find lot of documents on below link.

  • System backup of HANA server and HANA DB.

    Hi .
    I'm creating some of documents for maintenance operation - hana server .
    I want to confirm about backup of "HANA Server" . Also HANA server is SUSE linux , so normally I get backup of linux server by dump/restore command , use dd command when server offline  and on rescue mode kernel , or use something disk(partition) image backup tool .
    I think it can use for SUSE linux server - HANA Server too.
    In this time , if I get backup image of all disk  that  contains all HANA related files including persistent storage (of course hana is offline when get backup) , then I restore this image , can I use this HANA DB ?
    I see some of documents of HANA backup , but I never find about this type system backup . It is not supported operation?
    Regards,
    JT

    HI Jim,
    standard Linux system backup/recovery methods apply also for the SAP HANA servers.
    However, backing up the SAP HANA database is only supported by the backup commands.

    Hi Jana,
    You can refer "Using a Trial SAP HANA Instance" Here is the link SAP HANA Cloud Platform
    If you use SAP HANA Studio to connect your SAP HANA instance on HCP, you have to use SAP HANA Cloud Platform SDK to open a DB tunnel first. You can download the SDK from SAP Development Tools for Eclipse

  • Start/Stop SAP Hana on SAP Hana Studio - Authentication Method

    Hi dear SAP Hana Colleagues !
    For security reasons, the Security Team is disabling the password authentication of SAP OS Users (<sid>adm). The password will be setted up as "locked" in the /etc/passwd file, to block "intearactive logins".
    As we know and as discribed in the section 2.2 of "SAP Hana Administrator's Guide", to stop/start SAP Hana Systems by SAP Hana Studio, we need to provide the "user/password" data to execute these actions, and this will not be possible if the password has remaining as "locked" in the OS.
    Are there another way to authenticate the <sid>adm user from SAP Hana Studio to execute the stop/start of SAP Hana System ?
    I'll wait your answers.

  • HANA Hierarchy consumption in BOBI

    Hi Frzz,
    Currently we have created some hierarchies in SAP HANA. And i would like to consume those views in BOBI. Could you please let me know what are the supporting reports (Webi,Crystal,Dashboard, Explorer etc ) that i can consume my HANA hierarchies.
    Best Regards,
    Krishna.

    Hi Krishna,
    As far as i know hierarchies created in HANA studio can be only consumed in the reporting tool which can understand MDX i.e Excel or SAP BO Analysis Office
    Other Reporting tools like WebI may not be able to consume though.
    PS: i tried doing this in the earlier versions and hit this road block.  Hoping some one who is able to consume the hierarchies in BO or withsome update w.r.t road plan of this action item will reply here.

  • 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.

  • Lumira Server on SAP HANA Cloud Platform?

    Hi,
    Can we run Lumira Server on SAP HANA Cloud Platform (not SAP HANA)?
    Reason:
    Unless there is a way to publish Lumira Story via Lumira Cloud to BI LaunchPad, otherwise I am only interested in the Lumira Desktop version at the moment. As we want to continue to pursue to have one central portal for all BI contents using BI LaunchPad.
    Question:
    In summary, is it possible to apply SAP Lumira Server on SAP HANA Cloud Platform?
    See screenshots below for the ideal scenarios.

    Hi Ken,
    Great question.
    Yes, absolutely you can.
    As an example: I work with some customers who have small Hana estates "on-premise" (say, for Fraud on Hana, or BW HANA sidecar); as such they may not have the available infrastructure to decouple a sandbox Hana to evaluate new Hana Analytics innovations (like Lumira Server)
    In such situations I recommend this page http://hcp.sap.com/platform.html  to evaluate our Hana Cloud platform options.
    If you scroll half-way down, you'll see a nice graphic under the heading "Choose the Service That's Best for You". (the 3 stacked pillars)
    Depending on your own licensing particulars, you may already have a runtime license for Lumira Server (through your BI bundle), and you may already have HDB (database) licenses available in your enterprise, so potentially you need only the 'infrastructure service' (leftmost chart).
    Then, I've seen this integrated into productive on-premise systems, typically (but optionally) via a "leased line" (between customer & provider (SAP)) , and a VPN tunnel in between to make the secure bridge.
    It's a really neat way to get on the Hana journey: quick to deploy, flexible, and well priced.

  • How can I decide the size of HANA server when using DMO of SUM ?

    Hi expert,
    I want to execute DB migration from MS SQL to SAP HANA by using DMO of SUM.
    So I have a question.
    How can I decide the size of HANA server when using DMO of SUM ?
    Now I have MS SQL in windows server.
    But in order to use HANA , I have to prepare Linux server.
    I want to know How can I decide the size of this Linux server.
    Can I expect the function of data compression in HANA ?
    Thanks in advance .
    Kazuki.

    Kazuki,
    Please take attetion:
    Your linux box already created = Application server:
    Application Server
    Based on the measurements SAP doesn't expect any changes concerning CPU, memory and network requirements for the ABAP application server. This means that the existing hardware and network infrastructure can still be used. Please check the PAM (www.service.sap.com/pam) for further details.
    SAP HANA Appliance ( porvided by your hardware partner)
    Consider SAP Note recommendation for HANA Main Memory, HANA CPU and HANA Disk Space.

  • Reporting on HANA Model using EPM Add-in

    Hi All,
    BPC 10 NW on HANA
    EPM Add-in SP 15
    We have imported two models from BPC into HANA and using HANA calculation view, we are able to do certain cross-model calculations within HANA. However, when we try to report that using EPM Add-in, that's where we are facing the problem.
    We have created a local connection -> SAP HANA MDX Provider and while creating the connection we are selecting the same HANA package where we have built the required calculation view. The connection is successful, but when I try to create a new report there are no available dimensions in the report editor window?
    Any thoughts - do we need to turn some settings on, some access issue?

  • HANA XS Administration

    Hallo together,
    i started a project in my company with SAP HANA two weeks ago.
    There's one point i'm not able to handle and the documentation and/or google could not help me.
    So i hope that somebody here can give me a solution.
    Currently i'm trying to establish a connection to an external webservice also running in my intranet.
    To check my settings i wanted to look into XS Administration Page that can be accessed by /sap/hana/xs/admin/
    but got the error: Request execution failed due to missing privileges.
    So i asked our administrator to grant me access and i got all sap.hana.xs.admin.roles:xxx that are available.
    But i still get the same error with the missing privileges.
    Now my question: What i need to do to get access to the XS Administration Page?
    I tried to disconnect / connect to the HANA instance, restarted HANA studio, refreshed the whole repository...but nothing helps.
    Thanks a lot for you help.
    Kind regards
    Adam Glodek

    Problem solved.
    Digging into Google, SAP support pages and developer guides for several days does not give any useful result.
    I've started to try updating _SYS_XS schema manually by using my "sensations" and solved the problem.
    Execute the following SQL script from SQL console:
    UPDATE "_SYS_XS"."RUNTIME_CONFIGURATION" SET Configuration= '{"authentication": {"method": "Form"}}' where PACKAGE_ID=''
    Then restart xsEngine by rightclick on hana system->Administration->Configuration->daemon.ini->xsengine ->set instance number of host to 0 (if it is 1)-> set instance number to 1 again
    This worked for me. I finally got the authentication form back again.
    I suppose the problem is about choosing "Public" (No authentication required) from xs/admin page either intentionally or accidentally. After you choose this option and restart xsengine then it is not possible to see your xs admin page again. Because you select public, it is not asking authentication. But that does not mean you will be allowed to access publicly to web admin interface because of privilages. When you select public, web admin interface is not asking authentication and gives "Request execution failed due to missing privileges" error forever. You have to fix it manually by updating the _SYS_XS schema. That means you can change No public->public from xs admin page but cannot do the reverse public->No public from xs admin page because it will not be working anymore.
    Hope it helps someone out there.
