  • Source sizing implementation on HANA plugin
    The SAP HANA 2.0 Plugin version 6.3.0 introduces the source sizing feature, that aligns the data source experience with Delphix database standards which will improve your ingestion reporting experience on the per TB pricing model. This feature enables you to calculate the dataset size based on the total allocated space on the mount point provided by the Delphix Engine for the dataset. Source sizing is not implemented for VDB.

Below features are being provided:

  2. Support provided for log backups along with the data backups (only when non-ingestion has been chosen during dSource creation). 

  3. Ability to use Delphix provided storage for all virtualized tenant services. This is valid even for the user-created services outside the plugin.

  4. Multiple HANA installations on the same VM will also be supported.

  5. Support for Self-Service (Jetstream) has been certified with this release.

  6. Certification of plugin support with HANA Standard and Enterprise Edition 2.0 SP05 on RHEL 8.1.

Release 4.2.0

With this release, we are including the support for basepath_databackup parameter. Backups created via plugin will now be created on the PATH specified by this parameter. This parameter can be defined at the system and at the tenant level. If this parameter has not been specified then default location will be used for creating the backups.
