Related Topics

• Required File Systems and Directories

• Installation Parameters

• Users Created During the Installation

• Required Installation Media

• Preparing the Installer Configuration File

2.1.1 Required File Systems and Directories

The installer requires a running operating system (OS) with file system partitions created as listed inthe table below. All directories and files of the SAP system to be installed are created and mountedinside this file system.

2012-08-0915




If you have created and mounted these partitions in the appropriate partition before you start theinstallation, the installer recognizes /hanamnt and /usr/sap during the installation and automaticallycreates the directories and files of the SAP system there.

The directories for data- and log-volumes are not created automatically by the installer. You must createthem manually before you start the installation.

If you have not created these partitions before you start the installation, the installer creates them bydefault in the root directory (/ ) of the main partition along with the directories and files of the SAP

system.

The file system for the SAP mount directory for globalfiles and profiles.

The default name for the SAP mount directory ishanamnt, however you can also specify another

name. This directory needs to be accessible by eachof the servers in the HANA cluster.

The <hanamnt> path needs not to exceed 5GB, butthe hanamnt/<SID> folder requires RAM equal to thedefault system RAM (1*RAM).

It must be physically shared. The path to the SAPmount directory is a mandatory parameter to be filledin the installer configuration file. For more information,see Installation Parameters and Preparing the In-staller Configuration File.

2.2.1.1 SUM for SAP HANA Default Configuration

SUM for SAP HANA is installed and configured with a default security configuration that is ready-to-run.You can use it to minimize configuration effort.

The following graphics outline the default security configuration that the installer provides:

2012-08-0929




The communication between the SAP HANA studio, SUM for SAP HANA server, and the host agentis done via HTTPS. This communication requires configuration performed by the installer.

Starting on the right of the figure, a keystore named /usr/sap/hostctrl/exe/sec/SAPSSLS.pse

with a public/private key pair is generated and password protected for the host agent. The SAP Host Agent can read the private key via a special file /usr/sap/hostctrl/exe/sec/cred_v2, whichcontains the keystore password in an encrypted form. The cred_v2 is only readable for user sapadm

. The password is generated randomly.

If there is already a keystore for the SAP Host Agent, it is not deleted or modified. An attempt is madeto export the certificate so that it can be used by the SUM for SAP HANA server. A password is notrequired if the cred_v2 exists. If there is no cred_v2 file for user sapadm the installation aborts.

The public certificate is imported into the keystore of the JVM that is used to run the SUM for SAPHANA server. This keystore is located at /usr/sap/${SID}/SUM/jvm/jre/lib/security/cac

erts. This keystore has a default password changeit.

The SUM for SAP HANA keystore contains the public/private key pair for the communication with theSAP HANA studio. The keystore password is generated randomly and stored as clear text in the file/usr/sap/${SID}/SUM/config/catalina.properties file. This is the same password that is

used to protect the SAP Host Agent keystore. Make sure that you do not lose it.

This file is required for the web server to be able to access the private key. The public certificate for theSUM for SAP HANA is exported from the SUM for SAP HANA keystore and stored in the file/usr/sap/${SID}/SUM/config/sumforhana.cer . The alias name is sumforhana_${host

name}_${SID}. This public certificate must be imported into the keystore of the SAP HANA studio.

You still need to finalize the SUM for SAP HANA configuration as described in Configuring the SoftwareUpdate Manager for SAP HANA.

2.3.6 Configuring the Software Update Manager for SAP HANA

In addition to the SUM default configuration described in SUM for SAP HANA Default Configuration,you have to provide the server certificate for the SAP HANA Update UI.

You have to do this for each SAP HANA studio installation where the SAP HANA Update UI is to beused.

Proceed as follows:

1. Copy the server certificate sumforhana.cer from /usr/sap/<SID>/SUM/config/sum

forhana.cer to the host where the SAP HANA studio is installed.

2. Run the following command from the directory where you have copied sumforhana.cer:

2012-08-0936










keytool -importcert -keystore "<JRE_DIR>\lib\security\cacerts" -alias

sumforhana_$<hostname>_$<SAPSID> -file sumforhana.cer

Note:

<JRE_DIR> is the path to the Java runtime used by the SAP HANA studio. To find this path, chooseHelp > About SAP HANA Studio > Installation Details > Configuration and check the valueof the java.home property.

If the SAP HANA studio is installed on a UNIX/LINUX system, use forward slashes / in the commandabove.

You are asked for the key store password. Note that this is different from the password for the server key store. The default password for the cacerts key store is changeit, but if it has been changedyou have to find out what it is and provide it here.

3. Restart the SAP HANA studio.

If the default security configuration is not suitable for your organization, see the SAP HANA AutomatedUpdate Guide for detailed configuration information. For security considerations, see the SAP HANASecurity Guide.
