New Installation of S/4HANA 1709FPS1 – Part 2 – Installation
This blog includes installation of S/4HANA 1709 FPS1 and will focus on creating Sandbox type instance with co-deployed (embedded) gateway.
Please find other blogs as follows:
Here is the video for installation of previous version S4HANA 1610 FPS0 for reference:
STEP 1: OPERATING SYSTEM
It is recommended to install SuSE Linux version 12 ,
TIP: Please refer SAP Note 2380257 – SAP HANA Platform 2.0 SPS 00 Release Note. You can check your operating system version as below:
TIP: Please refer SAP Note 2380257 – SAP HANA Platform 2.0 SPS 00 Release Note. You can check your operating system version as below:
sid-hdb-s4h:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 (x86_64) VERSION = 12 PATCHLEVEL = 1
STEP 2: USE EXISTING HANA DATABASE (OPTION1)
If you already have a database, please patch the database to HANA 2 and you can create container using command:
CREATE DATABASE HDB SYSTEM USER PASSWORD Xxxxxxxn
It takes about 2 minutes to create database with this command.
STEP 2: NEW HANA DATABASE (OPTION 2)
To install database you can use hdblcmgui. I used hdblcm as below.
First unpack the archive to folder 51052325_HANA2_20

Updating Component List...
SAP HANA Database components updated
After installation of HANA database in case you would like to install integrated livecache, please add the plugin as below,unpack HANA DATABASE LCAPPS archive:
sid-hdb:/sapmedia/HANA2_23_LCAPPS # SAPCAR –xvf IMDB_LCAPPS_2023_0-20010426.SAR
sid-hdb:/sapmedia/HANA2_23_LCAPPS/SAP_HANA_LCAPPS # ./hdbinst

Log file written to '/var/tmp/hdb_lcapps_2018-02-01_17.58.56_9370/hdbinst_lcapps.log' on host 'vhcals4hci'.
We will require HANA Client to match the database patch level, so please extract HANA Client as below in folder HANA2_CLIENT20_002_36
sid-hdb:/sapmedia/HANA2_CLIENT20_002_36 # SAPCAR –xvf IMDB_CLIENT20_002_36-80002082.SAR

Click on Finish to exit.
TIP: Please change the log mode if you don’t want to be spend time on log maintenance:
In HANA studio –> Configuration –> global.ini –> persistence and set the parameter log_mode to overwrite. When you change the log mode, you must restart the database system to activate the changes. It is also recommended that you perform a full data backup. You can also set the log_mode to ‘overwrite’ using the following SQL-Statement:

IF THERE IS NO ERROR YOU CAN TAKE A BREAK FOR 10 HOURSThe ABAP Import takes around 3hrs and job RUTDDLCREATE takes around 4 Hrs
TIP: The high hitter phases for time duration were Import ABAP (3hrs) and Create DDL Views (RUTDDLSCREATE) (4hrs) . The system and used memory for database was high. So for MDC and MCOD scenario, free up memory by unloading tables in other tenants/databases. In MCOS scenario please shutdown other databases. The video shown at the beginning has clock showing the time in fast forward as the installation progresses.
STEP 4: ADDON INSTALLATION USING SUM
As we executed combined SWPM+SUM you should have filesystem /usr/sap/S4H/SUM. If not, don’t worry, please extract it as below 2 commands:
as s4hadm cd /usr/sap/S4H SAPCAR -xvf /sapmedia/download/SUM20SP01_1-80002456.SAR as root ps –ef | grep –i sapup /usr/sap/S4H/SUM/abap/SUMSTART confighostagent
TIP: Please check that your /windows/drivers/etc/host file contains entry with IP address mapped to hostname vhcals4hci. c:\users\mahesh>type c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts 10.20.130.140 vhcals4hci vhcals4hci.dummy.nodomain vhcals4hcs vhcals4hcs.dummy.nodomain vhcalhdbdb vhcalhdbdb.dummy.nodomain
