SAP HANA Resource Configuration Tasks

Once you have completed the setup tasks described in the previous section, you are ready to create and extend your SAP HANA resource hierarchies.

The following tasks are available for configuring the LifeKeeper for Linux SAP HANA Recovery Kit:

• Create Resource Hierarchy – Creates an SAP HANA resource hierarchy

• Delete Resource Hierarchy – Deletes an SAP HANA resource hierarchy

• Extend Resource Hierarchy – Extends an SAP HANA resource hierarchy from the primary server to the backup server

• Unextend Resource Hierarchy – Unextends (removes) an SAP HANA resource hierarchy from a single server in the LifeKeeper cluster

Please refer to your LifeKeeper for Linux Technical Documentation for additional instructions on configuring your LifeKeeper resource hierarchies.

The following tasks are described in the Administration section within the LifeKeeper for Linux Technical Documentation because they are common tasks with steps that are identical across all Recovery Kits.

• Create a Resource Dependency. Creates a parent/child dependency between an existing resource hierarchy and another resource instance and propagates the dependency changes to all applicable servers in the cluster.

• Delete a Resource Dependency. Deletes a resource dependency and propagates the dependency changes to all applicable servers in the cluster.

• In Service. Brings a resource hierarchy into service on a specific server.

• Out of Service. Takes a resource hierarchy out of service on a specific server.

• View / Edit Properties. View or edit the properties of a resource hierarchy on a specific server.

Note: Throughout the rest of this section, configuration tasks are performed using the Edit menu.

You may also perform most of the tasks:

• from the toolbar
• by right-clicking on a global resource in the left pane of the status display
• by right-clicking on a resource in the right pane of the status display
  

Using the right-click method allows you to avoid entering certain information that is required when using the Edit menu.
