Findings

  • During our tests with SAP HANA on Unity, we observed that:

    • The SAP HANA-HWC-ES 1.1 certification scenario makes higher disk configuration demands than the HANA-HWC-ES 1.0 certification.
    • SAP HANA production installations on Unity systems require SSDs for the SAP HANA persistence to meet the SAP HANA KPIs.
    • Using SSDs for the SAP HANA persistence provides the following significant benefits:
    • Initial array and disk configuration based on capacity
      without the need to take spindle count into consideration.
    • Reduced SAP HANA startup and host auto-failover times
    • Reduced SAP HANA backup times
