SAP HANA Server Installation and Update new capabilities and enhancements, introduced with SAP HANA Platform 2.0 SPS 07 #HANA Database

 SAP HANA Platform 2.0 SPS 07 introduces new and changed features. in this blog, I tried to record these changes with the help of SAP Documents. 


SAP HANA Server Installation and Update (New and Changed)

Data and Log Encryption (Changed)

The default value of the parameter volume_encryption has been changed to --volume_encryption (on). This changed setting is applied to new installations, but existing systems are not modified when upgrading.

Backup Encryption (New)

Enable or disable backup encryption. The default for this parameter is --backup_encryption (on). This parameter is available in interactive mode.

Systemd Integration (New)

SAP HANA and SAP Start Service can be integrated as services in the systemdb management. 

For details see SAP Note 3189534 - Linux: systemdb integration for sapstartsrv and SAP HANA.

Local Secure Store (LSS) (Changed)

As of SAP HANA 2.0 Support Package Stack (SPS) 07, SAP HANA Local Secure Store will be installed and activated by default during an SAP HANA system installation if it has been detected as a component by hdblcm. To opt out of Local Secure Store activation during installation, run hdblcm with the parameter secure_store=ssfs or do not select it as a component.

LSS must be activated before it can be used. For more information, see Activate the Local Secure Store (LSS).
