This Case Study session was delivered at SUSECON in November 2016, in Washington, DC.
Abstract: In this session Carsten Dieterle, Leading SAP Solution Architect with IBM, will talk about a first-of-a-kind solution for setting up SAP HANA on IBM Power private cloud solution in the datacenter of a large customer in the automotive area. In this solution the fully-automated installation of SLES Linux LPAR's through PowerVC as well as the unattended installation of SAP HANA (use cases SAP BW scale-up and scale-out installations or Suite on HANA) with the required storage and CPU and memory ratio are included. In addition we integrated SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension (SUSE HAE) for business critical systems to minimize downtime and automated failover to the backup datacenter. With this setup the development departments of the customer are able to deploy SAP HANA installation on demand. As orchestration tool for the deployment we use IBM cloud orchestrator. For the infrastructure solution the client chose a combination of high-end Power8 E880 machines, ESS storage solution in combination with an IB Infiniband network.
