Creating a SAP HANA Database
This page covers the configuration specific to SAP HANA — its Database Mode and any engine-specific settings shown below. The rest of the creation flow — opening the wizard, namespace and name, version, machine profile, storage, and optional features — is the same for every engine and is documented in Common Steps.
Database Mode
Select the topology under Database Mode:
- Standalone — A single-node SAP HANA instance.
- SystemReplication — A HANA System Replication setup with a primary and secondary site for high availability.
When SystemReplication is selected:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Number of Replicas | Number of HANA nodes. Required. |
| Replication Mode | logreplay, delta_datashipping, or logreplay_readaccess. |
| Operation Mode | The system replication operation mode. |
