Step 1 -> install client on hana and configure a sap policy with no backup selection .
step 2 -> create node_names.txt file under location /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/sap/ and mention the node name ( hostname ) in that. If multiple nodes are there than mention each node name top to bottom order.
step 3 -> edit the file /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/sap/scripts/sap_oracle/initSAP.utl
mention master server name , client name and policy name
step 4 -> linking backup script to hdbbackint
ln -sf /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/hdbbackint_script /usr/sap/BC3/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbbackint
If opt directory is not created than create it and link the hdbbackint_script.sh also give 777 permission to opt directory
step 5 -> mentioning config file location in HANA
HANA Studio Admin console -> Configuration -> global.ini -> backup
2 parameters are modified
data_backup_parameter_file -> file name should be /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/sap/scripts/sap_oracle/initSAP.utl
log_backup_parameter_file -> file name should be /usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/sap/scripts/sap_oracle/initSAP.utl
>• Instance – Configuration – global.ini – backup – data_backup_parameter_file –>this should be location of initSAP.utl
>• Instance – Configuration – global.ini – backup – log_backup_parameter_file –> this should be location of initSAP.utl
>• Instance – Configuration – global.ini – backup – log_backup_using_backint –> should be set to True
In case of backup failure
>3. Backup Failure:
>• Verify Policy type is SAP.
>• Verify HANA Database is running.
>• Verify HANA Studio is configured and Database is accessible from HANA Studio.
>• Check the global.ini configuration parameters.
>• Verify that the node_names.txt file exist (/usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/sap/) on all nodes.
>• This file is created by the NetBackup administrator and should contain the names of all the nodes.
>• The node names should match the policy client.
