Hello,
We have installed several HANA Databases (SPS12.0 and SPS11.2) and different SAP systèmes have been connected : S/4 HANA , SAP ECC EhP8.
The HANA Database is always running on its own server, and the SAP system running on its distinct server.
The SAP system has been connected to HANA through its Virtual IP adress.
For example we just installed a HANA Database on its physical IP adress sapt01hana1
The Virtual IP adress of the HANA server is hanatest
The SAP Netweaver system has been installed and conencted to HANA through its virtual IP adress : hanatest
In hdbusersore there is no mention whatsoever of the physical hostname ,only the virtual hostname
sapt01d01:t01adm 59> hdbuserstore LIST
DATA FILE : /home/t01adm/.hdb/sapt01d01/SSFS_HDB.DAT
KEY FILE : /home/t01adm/.hdb/sapt01d01/SSFS_HDB.KEY
KEY DEFAULT
ENV : hanatest:30015
USER: SAPECC
In the DEFAULT profile, the virtual hostname of the DB has been configured during the installation :
SAPDBHOST = hanatest
Connection from SAP system to virtual hostname of the DB works fine
hdbsql=> \c -n hanatest -i 00 -u SAPECC -p Mypassword
Connected to QHA@sapt01hana1.****.com:30015
I checked with netstat and SAP system is communicating with its DB through the virtual IP adress only
But in SAP screens, only the physical hostname of the DB is displayed, not the virtual hostname :
Here a screenshot of DBACOCKPIT, or System---|Statut.
I do not understand why the virtual hostname is not being picked up
I checked DBCO entries : there was no DEFAULT entry, so I created one pointing to the virtual hostname it did not change anything
Thank you for your attention
