Transport SAP HANA/BWA Index to Target
Dear Experts,
I have created SAP HANA/BWA index using t-code RSDDB in DEV system using BEx query. now i want to transport the BWA index to TEST system, but I don't know how?
Already I have transported the BEx query to TEST system.
Please help me to how we will transport the SAP HANA/BWA index to TEST system.
Thanks,

Hi Karuppiah,
I am not sure it is possible to transport BWA Index
Analytic Indexes are not integrated in the BW repository and therefore cannot be transported.
"Analytic indexes can be created and filled with (transformed) data quickly. They are intended for ad-hoc scenarios. They can also be created as InfoProviders without reference to InfoObjects. They are therefore not integrated into the metadata repository and cannot be transported. "

Deploying / Transporting SAP HANA-ECC and BW Solution?
Is there one centralized deployment guid for SAP HANA solutions in the SAP ECC and SAP BW environment?
Please can one of you provide some directions to a centralized guide to move / deploy SAP HANA solutions build in one system to Quality and/or production environment?Rama,
there's a pretty straight forward export/import functionality for moveing models from dev to qa and prod. Please see the SAP HANA Modeling Guide, chapter "Processing Information Objects".
You can also use CTS+ in conjunction with this functionality.

CompositeProvider Data Preview "Error in the BWA/SAP HANA Server"
Hello Experts,
We have created CompositeProvider in HANA Studio. When we are trying to preview the data in CompositeProvider, we get the below error message.

Transporting Data models in SAP HANA
Hi All,
I was trying to understand how data models can be transported in SAP HANA and came across the different options in the Export option of hana Studio like exporting with Delivery unit, Developer mode, etc.. Can someone please elaborate on the differences between each and the scenrio when each should be used?
Thanks,
SamNo Justin, haven't used in any "production" environments till now since the client am working for is still to be upgraded to SP7. At internal system we are doing some R&D in those lines and developing artifacts from "Development" perspective.
Here i shared this link for reference itself.
Also i think using Development perspective for modelling is what is being suggested going forward in blogs like this
6 Golden Rules for New SAP HANA Developers
May be John Appleby and his team are already using "Development" perspective consistently

SAP HANA : differences and costs
Dear All,
HANA is designed to enable faster ways to process data from business applications in real time, without impacting the underlying source system. I believe HANA will bring new and interesting opportunities to SAP. Which are the most important technical differences between HANA, BWA and BOEA? Which are the cost differences?
Regards,
BobBob,
Here are my thoughts:
HANA: Here's my recommendation for the best in-class next-generation BI solution. Deploy HANA as a standlone server with two logical system partitions. 1st partition for standalone HANA modeling and 2nd partition to host HANA DB for BW 7.3. This way you get to exploit HANA performance for both SAP BW system as a database and also use the HANA power for standalone non-BW (ECC and flat-file) application that need good performance.
BWA: I would not recommend a BWA solution for a new BW implementation. Given the fact that SAP has announced recently that BWA 7.3 will be the last release for BWA. However, if there is a critical BW application in production that needs better performance, then BWA will be a quick fix solution. The cost difference between an SAP HANA solution and a BWA solution is narrowing down quickly. I do not want to go into details of cost.
BOEA (aka BOE Accelerator Version): Guys, there is some confusion here. BOEA does not support BWA acceleration for non-BW data source data. Meaning that if you are using BOEA (accelerated version) - you can load non-SAP and Non-BW data but can not accelerate the data using BWA unless the data is put in an SAP BW info provider (cubes,etc..). Only BW info providers in a BOEA solution can exploit BWA acceleration. Other data (non-SAP and Non-BW ) can only exploit on indexing capability of BOE internally but not the BWA. BWA portion of BOEA is specific to BW in the backend.
Also, please read my executive summary on SAP HANA @ http://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/u1AO5NidaMTYSD49JoHsjg

Issue:
I have SAP BW system and SAP HANA System
SAP BW to SAP HANA connecting through a DB Connection (named HANA)
Whenever I created any Open Hub as Destination like DB Table with the help of DB Connection, table will be created at HANA Schema level ( L_F50800_D )
Executed the Open Hub service without checking DELETING Data from table option
Data loaded with 16 Records from BW to HANA same
Second time again executed from BW to HANA now 32 records came ( it is going to append )
Executed the Open Hub service with checking DELETING Data from table option
Now am getting short Dump DBIF_RSQL_TABLE_KNOWN getting
If checking in SAP BW system tio SAP BW system it is working fine ..
will this option supports through DB Connection or not ?
Please follow the attachemnet along with this discussion and help me to resolve how ?
From
Santhosh KumarHi Ramanjaneyulu ,
First of all thanks for the reply ,
Here the issue is At OH level ( Definition Level - DESTINATION TAB and FIELD DEFINITION )
in that there is check box i have selected already that is what my issue even though selected also
not performing the deletion from target level .
SAP BW - to SAP HANA via DBC connection
1. first time from BW suppose 16 records - Dtp Executed -loaded up to HANA - 16 same
2. second time again executed from BW - now hana side appaended means 16+16 = 32
3. so that i used to select the check box at OH level like Deleting data from table
4. Now excuted the DTP it throws an Short Dump - DBIF_RSQL_TABLE_KNOWN
Now please tell me how to resolve this ? will this option is applicable for HANA mean to say like , deleting data from table option ...
Thanks

Hello Experts,
We are in the process of HANA Standalone implementation and design studio as reporting tool. When I am modeling, I did not figure out answers to some of the below questions .Below are the questions. Experts, please help.
Best way of modeling: The SAP HANA LIVE is completely built on calculation view; there are no Attribute and Analytical views. I have got different answer why there is only Calculation view and there are no Alaytic view and Attribute views. We are in SP7 latest version. This is a brand new HANA in top of non-SAP (DB2 source). What is the best way to model this scenario, meaning, can we model everything in the Calculation view’s like SAP HANA live or do you suggest using the standard attribute, analytical and calculation views to do the data model. Is SAP moving away from AV & AT to only calculation Views to simply the modeling approach?
Reporting: We are using the design studio as front end tool. Just for example, if we assume that we are
Using the BW, we bring all the data in to BW from different sources, build the cubes and use the bex query. Here in bex query we will be using the restricted key figures, calculated key figures calculations etc. From the reporting wise, we have the same requirements, calculations, RKF, CKF,Sum, Avg etc. if we are Using the design studio on top of standalone HANA, where do I need to implement all these calculations? Is it in different views? (From reporting perspective, if it’s BW system, I would have done all the calculations in BEx.)
Universe: If we are doing all the calculations in SAP HANA like RKF. CKF and other calculations , what is the point in having additional layer of universe , because the reporting compnets cam access the queries directly on views .In one of our POC , we found that the using universe affect performance.
Real time reporting: Our overall objective is to give a real time or close to real time reporting requirements, how data services can help, meaning I can schedule the data loads every 3 or 5 min to pull the data from source. If I am using the Data services, how soon I can get the data in HANA, I know it depends on the no of records and the transformations in between the systems & network speed. Assuming that I will schele the job every 2 min and it will take another 5 min to process the Data services job , is it fair to say the my information will be available on the BOBJ tools with in 10 min from the creation of the records.
Are there any new ETL capabilities included in SP7, I see some additional features included in SP7. Is some of the concepts discussed are still valid, because in SP7 we have star join concept.
Thanks

>> I haven't read any "official" guidance to move away from typical modeling approach, so I'd say stick with the usual approach- AT, then AV, then CA views. I was told that the reason for different approach with HANA Live was to simplify development for mass production of solutions.

>> I'm not a BW guy, but from a HANA perspective - implement them where they make the most sense. In some cases, this is obvious - restricted columns are only available in Analytic Views. Hard to provide more complex advice here - it depends on your scenario(s). Review your training materials, review SCN posts and you should start to develop a better idea of where to model particular requirements. (Most of the time in typical BI scenarios, requirements map nicely to straightforward modeling approaches such as Attribute/Analytic/Calculations Views. However, some situations such as slowly-changing dimensions, certain kinds of calculations (i.e. calc before aggregation with BODS as source - where calculation should be done in ETL logic) etc can be more complex. If you have specific scenarios that you're unsure about, post them here on SCN.
Universe: If we are doing all the calculations in SAP HANA like RKF. CKF and other calculations , what is the point in having additional layer of universe , because the reporting compnets cam access the queries directly on views .In one of our POC , we found that the using universe affect performance.
>>> Depends on what you're doing. Universe generates SQL just like front-end tools, so bad performance implies bad modeling. Generally speaking - universes *can* create more autonomous reporting architecture. But if your scenario doesn't require it - then by all means, avoid the additional layer if there's no added value.
Real time reporting: Our overall objective is to give a real time or close to real time reporting requirements, how data services can help, meaning I can schedule the data loads every 3 or 5 min to pull the data from source. If I am using the Data services, how soon I can get the data in HANA, I know it depends on the no of records and the transformations in between the systems & network speed.

>>> Not exactly sure what your question here is. Your limits on BODS are the same as with any other target system - doesn't depend on HANA. The second the record(s) are committed to HANA, they are available. They may be in delta storage, but they're available. You just need to work out how often to schedule BODS - and if your jobs are taking 5 minutes to run, but you're scheduling executions every 2 minutes, you're going to run into problems...

Process to Upgrade SAP HANA from SPS06 to SPS07 on distributed systems
Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to upgrade our SAP HANA system system from SPS06 to SPS07, but I have below queries on the same:
1) Do we need to consider any Notes before applying the upgrade for pre and post steps (as per my knowledge we have to consider post upgrade note: 1962472, are there any other too?)
2) As per my knowledge, we just need to stop SAP app systems and then backup of HANA system
3) Also we have a distributed environment in our landscape (three multiple hosts), what could be the upgrade approach, is it same as like single host environment (as /hana/shared will be the common to all distributed hosts)
Could anyone clarify my questions please.
Also for your information we have BW systems on top of HANA DB
Thanks very much in advance !
Kind Regards,
Arun Reddy
Message was edited by: Tom FlanaganHi John,
Thank you for the response, our source and target levels are (Source - 1.00.69.00.385196 Target - 1.00.74.03.392810)
I just wanted to ask you one more quick question here, can't we upgrade the above mentioned versions in one go? or we need to upgrade in two steps like, at first upgrading from 1.00.69.00.385196 to 1.00.73.00.389160 and then to target level 1.00.74.03.392810?
Also as you said in distributed environment we can upgrade as same like single host environment, so it same like below approach?
1) stopping the hana database
2) navigate to media path and then execute hdblcm in gui or command line
3) select option upgrading existing system
4) provide the passwords and system poped-up inputs
5) select the target levels of HANA components
6) once upgrade done successfully, then need to upgrade hana client in all app servers
if my above assumption is correct, then I have couple of questions like:
1) in which host we need to login and perform the upgrade? (as we are having three hosts- HANADB1, HANADB2, HANADB3) , is it okay we can do from any of the three hosts?
2) Also if upgrade stopped at middle due to errors, do we have option like to start the upgrade from the point where it stop? else we need to restore the lat successful backup and then again need to perform the upgrade from starting point?
Sorry for asking many questions, i have done the upgrade in single host environment, but not on distributed. So wanted to be make sure with all points to action the activity.
Thanks for your help and patience in advance !

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,
AndreasHi 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.

Hello,
I've reading a lot of documentation from SAP about the new SAP HANA. But i can't yet find the difference between SAP FICO in no-HANA Systems and Smart Finance and Simple Finance in SAP HANA sytem's.
As far as i understood, if i migrate my FICO from no-HANA to HANA system, i would have, obligatorily, the New GL functionality and the New Asset Accounting.
But i have two question, if anyone could assist it would be of great help:
1. By simply migrating data would i imediatly benefit of the new architectural design? (column oriented, in-memory, total tables and index tables transformed to views such as all BSI* and BSA*) or do I need to instal an add-on (Simple Finance or Smart Finance)??
2. I recently entered a SAP HANA machine from one of our clients, and BSIS, for example, was not a view as was expected. Was there something missing, some sort of activation?
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Nuno AnjosPlease read the release notes in this link SAP Simple Finance Add-On for SAP Business Suite powered by SAP HANA – SAP Help Portal Page to understand what's new in SAP FICO as compared to the earlier versions.
Regarding your questions above, here are my thoughts:
1. You need to install the add-on first (a software update) and then perform the database migration.
2. Once you install the financial add-on for Suite on HANA (SAP Simple Finance Add-On for SAP Business Suite powered by SAP HANA), BSIS should appear as a DDL SQL View in SE11. -
Attribute / Hierarchy Change Run and BWA Index
HI!
During my analysis to the perocess chains in our BW/BWA systems, I noticed that Change Run either rollup or update BWA indexes. I am not sure what Change Run exactly does for the indexes, so if you please can help in that it will be great. because we are inpecting that this may caused us a failure in BWA indexes before.

Is there any difference in normal ABAP and ABAP for SAP HANA ? If yes , then please guide me how to proceed for learning ABAP for SAP HANA ?
Hi Ruchi,
There is a slight difference between ABAP and ABAP for HANA. If you are well aware of all ABAP concepts then you can easily understand the ABAP for HANA concepts.
Some of the differnce which I observed.
1. New syntax for Open SQL is introduced, which includes support for comma separated lists, enhanced string expressions, the definition of host variables in a more standard fashion, and fewer restrictions for joins.
eg: SELECT so.matnr, so.mtart FROM mara AS so INTO TABLE @it_mara UPTO 10 ROWS.
2.It uses the TOP DOWN approach so we can use HANA databases capabilities. you can get more information on this in this blog ABAP for HANA and "Code Push-Down"
3. CDS (Core Data Services) View, AMDP (ABAP managed database procedures) are again new features. Refer this document. http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b01089ed-dead-3110-f28e-caa12aeb5e27?QuickLink=index&…

If you want to learn more about ABAP for SAP HANA then please register for the self placed course on OPENSAP. Here is the link (ABAP Development for SAP HANA - Dr. Jasmin Gruschke and Jens Weiler).

Hello!
I have got a question about the SAP HANA Applications.
First I give you a list about the Apps:
a) CO-PA Accelerator
b) Smart Meter Analytics
c) Strategic Workforce Planning
d) Cash and liquidity management
e) Sales and operations planning
f) Trade promo management
g) Profitability engine
h) Customer revenue performance management
i) Merchandising and assortment management
j) Energy management for utility customers
k) Customer-specific pricing
l) Intelligent Payment Broker
And now my questions:
1. Which of these Apps are available now ?
2. I found some information yout the apps (a - e)
3. But I can't find any information about the apps (f -l) .... can you give me some links, where I can read about these apps?
I thank you for any information about HANA.Hello,
This is very good question - each SAP page is listing different applications and information is quite fragmented.
Looking at help.sap.com seems to suggest that only "SAP Strategic Workforce Planning 1.0" is out.
http://help.sap.com/hpa
Then looking at two pages below is seems that "SAP CO-PA Accelerator" and "SAP Smart Meter Analytics" is also available.
Real-time Applications / Industries: http://www.sap.com/hana/apps-by-industry/index.epx
Real-time Applications / Lines of Business: http://www.sap.com/hana/apps-by-business/index.epx
But more apps should be out by now - at least looking at original plans:
http://www.enterpriseirregulars.com/32993/sap%E2%80%99s-in-memory-hana-database-appliance-gets-apped/
(But I guess that SAP disclaimer is effective here and plans might have changed.)
Not sure if I helped.
I would suggest to open SAP message asking for clarification.
(Or maybe one of SAP Mentors might have some contact inside SAP that could clarify this.)
