Prerequisites to adding hosts and installing SnapCenter Plug-in for SAP HANA Database

• You must have installed Java 1.8 64-bit on your Linux or Windows host.
• You must have installed SAP HANA database interactive terminal (HSBSQL client) on the host.

  For Windows, the HDBSQL client must be running using the “SYSTEM” Windows user.

• For Windows, plug-in Creator Service should be running using the “LocalSystem” windows user, which is the default behavior when Plug-in for SAP HANA Database is installed as domain administrator.
• For Windows, user store keys should be created as SYSTEM user. For example, hdbuserstore -u SYSTEM -i set
• When installing a plug-in on a Windows host, if you specify a Run As account that is not built-in or if the Run As user belongs to a local workgroup user, you must disable UAC on the host.
• For Linux host, user store keys are accessed as OS database user.
• SnapCenter Server should have access to the 8145 or custom port of Plug-in for SAP HANA host.

General

If you are using iSCSI, the iSCSI service must be running.

Windows hosts

• You must have a domain user with local administrator privileges with local login permissions on the remote host.
• If you manage cluster nodes in SnapCenter, you must have a user with administrative privileges to all the nodes in the cluster.
• Data protection using SnapCenter requires a two-way trust relationship between the SnapCenter Server domain and the plug-in domain using the Microsoft Active Directory Domains and Trusts snap-in.

  Although domain trusts, multidomain forests, and cross-domain trusts are supported, cross-forest domains are not.

Linux hosts

• You must have enabled the password-based SSH connection for the root or non-root user.
• You must have installed Java 1.8 64-bit on your Linux host.

  If you are using Windows 2016 for the SnapCenter Server host, you must install Java 1.8, 64-bit. The Interoperability Matrix Tool (IMT) contains the latest information about requirements.
