Creating a backup policy for SAP HANA

This topic describes how to create a new backup policy for the SAP HANA.

To create a backup policy for SAP HANA

  1. Log on to the master server as root or administrator.
  2. Start the NetBackup Administration Console.
  3. In the left pane, click Policies. In the All Policies pane, right-click the master server, and click New Policy.
  4. In the Add a New Policy dialog box, in the Policy name field, type a unique name (for example, sap_backup) for the policy.
  5. Click OK.
  6. In the Add New Policy dialog box, in the Policy type list, select SAP.
  7. Select a disk-based storage unit from the Policy storage drop-down list.
  8. On the Attributes tab, select the Follow NFS, Compress and Encrypt options.

    Note:

    When you use media server deduplication pools, PureDisk deduplication pool, or a virtual tape library as the storage unit, do not select Compress and Encrypt options.

  9. Complete the entries on the Attributes tab.

    See About policy attributes.

  10. Add other policy information as follows:
    • NetBackup automatically creates a schedule for SAP HANA. Make any changes on the Schedules tab.

    • On the Clients tab, add all the SAP HANA nodes.

    • Add scripts to the backup selections list.

      See Adding NetBackup for SAP scripts to the backup selections list.

  11. After you complete adding the required clients and scripts, click OK.
