Migration

Migration to SAP S/4HANA

Tool SAP DMO (Database Migration Option)

Grafical User Interface
The same process as heterogenous system copy
Dynamic adaptation of resources

(Number of processes, Bumber of batch)

Data exchange over Network Pipes no disk space required
Automatic verification of the migration (number of tables and records)
DMO Tool is great step forward vs. the old tools ( distmon ,)
Migration with DMO Tool works very well

First migration (BW) without Know How Transfer

Learnings:

Communication to the customer not with one single voice

HCM migration with Know How Transfer

Participants all HCM IT consultants / developer

Often SAP HANA as culprit, Missing Know How from the IT

HCM IT consultants have a good understanding how SAP HANA function

Better communication to the customer one single voice

SAP HANA operation

Why TDI approach at Geberit ?

Already experiences with BWA appliance solution

High costs
Changes only through external technical consultant
High space consumption in data center (whole rack)

High TCO due to foreign objects in data center

Advantages for Geberit with TDI approach

Only one central storage for all (Maintainability, TCO, Flexibility)

Installation / migration can be done by internal employees
No dependency of external consultant
Better competition by hardware procurement (Standard components)

2-phase approach

- per script with SQL to filesystem

- per filesystem backup to tape

Runtime Backup Memory to disk 20 minutes for 1 TB

SAP HANA System Replication with SUSE HA

SAP HANA system replication works well

Combined with SUSE HA solution for SAP HANA
SUSE HA certified by SAP
Automatic takeover if system break down
Easy to implement
Takeover Time (1 TB Data Footprint)

rev > 85.02 : 6 min

3-Tier Cluster (1-2 Tier sync and 3-Tier async)

Bandwith usage (async Geo Cluster)
Missing: Shadow database functionality

SAP HANA Operation

SAP HANA Systemcopies incl. ABAP

Several times performed without problems

Can be completely done with SAP HANA Studio
Rough procedure:
1. Start SAP HANA Backup on the productive system
2. Make Backup directory from prod. system available for target system (Mount)
3. Start Restore in SAP HANA Studio on the target system
Necessary: Data Backup Location readapt
4. ABAP post copy steps proceed as normal (e.g. Schema adaption in profiles)
We use PCA (Post Copy Automation) tool from SAP

Experiences with SAP HANA

Achieved results new possibilities with SAP HANA

BWA and TREX are no longer required

BW faster data load process / Fast data migration

process
Very fast data selection

(Until now only possible over creating temporary tables)

e.g. Overhead calcuation for USA (from 6 h down to 10 min)

Some FI functions are very fast
