1 SAP HANA Hardware and Cloud
Measurement Tools

This guide describes how to install and use the SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tools.

SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tools help customers and partners to optimize their hardware or
cloud systems before deploying SAP HANA or applying for SAP HANA certification. The tools consist of the
SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tool and the SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement
analysis, which is available online.

The SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tool allows customers and partners to collect information on
the infrastructure intended for SAP HANA deployment. The tool measures whether the planned hardware or
cloud system complies with the requirements defined by SAP. Furthermore, it gauges whether the system
planned for SAP HANA deployment can achieve satisfactory base performance by meeting the minimum
requirements defined as well as satisfactory overall performance given the intended SAP HANA usage. The
measurement results are saved into a single file, which can be uploaded to the SAP HANA hardware and cloud
measurement analysis for further analysis and reporting.

SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tools are based on the requirements of SAP HANA Platform 2.0
or newer. For older SAP HANA versions, refer to the SAP HANA Hardware Configuration Check Tool and the
related SAP Note 1943937.

System Configuration and Performance Measurement [page 5]

1.3 System Configuration and Performance Measurement

The measurement enables you to decide whether the system planned for SAP HANA deployment meets the
desired system and performance requirements.

The SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tool performs a series of automated tests, for example
network tests, file system consistency tests, system management BIOS tests, and CPU benchmark tests. The
duration and repeat rate of the tests depends on the type of execution plan that you intend to run. The
following execution plans are available:

● executionplan.json - Default execution plan that helps you to check if the KPIs for SAP HANA
certification are met.
● full_executionplan.json - Performs the same tests as the default execution plan, but has a higher
test repeat rate and thus a longer test duration. This test is required for SAP HANA certification.

The SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tool supports both Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) and
version 6 (IPv6). However, all hosts must use the same IP version. A combination of different IP versions is not
supported.

1.3.1 Measure System Configuration and Performance -

Scale-out Systems

Perform a measurement to see whether the scale-out system planned for SAP HANA deployment meets the
system and performance requirements that are needed for SAP HANA certification.

Prerequisites

● You have installed the latest version of the SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tool on the
system.
● You have at least 20 GB of free storage space in the location where SAP HANA data can be placed during
the test.
● If SAP HANA is already installed, the database must be stopped for the duration of the measurement.
● When using nonvolatile memory, mounts for all hosts or an alias of the same name must be available.
● Ports 50000 and 50001 must be open for communication.

Context

The measurement tool performs a series of automated tests based on the execution plan that you select, for
example executionplan.json or full_executionplan.json. For scale-out systems, you start the
measurement tool on the master host and specify any worker hosts on which the tests should run as well. The
tool reads the execution plan, starts the test locally, and delegates tests marked for scale-out to the worker
hosts. The tool waits for the completion of the tests on the worker hosts before starting the next test in the
execution plan. All test measurement data and the host manifests are collected in one result file written by the
master host instance.

 Starting the Measurement Tool on a Scale-out System

Procedure

1. To start the measurement tool on the worker hosts in verbose mode, enter hcmt -v -S on each of the
hosts.
2. To start the measurement tool on the master host in verbose mode, enter hcmt -v.
3. Adjust the following variables that are contained in the execution plans:

Variable User Entry

<LogVolume> Specify the location where logs should be written.

<DataVolume> Specify an existing location where SAP HANA data can be

placed.

<NvmBasePath> If persistent memory is available, specify the mount paths

of this persistent memory separated by commas.

If no persistent memory is available, leave empty.

<Hosts> Specify, in no particular order and separated by commas,

the remote hosts that you want to measure. You do not
have to enter host 1, because it is included automatically
in the measurement.

 Note
Measuring the system configuration and performance
using the default execution plan or the full execution
plan may take some time. To check whether the cor­

 Variable User Entry

rect host names are used, we recommend performing

a quick check using quickcheck.json.

4. Enter hcmt -v -p <planfile>, using the fully qualified path of the installation directory, for
example .../installation/config/executionplan.json.

This starts a measurement using the selected execution plan. The results of the measurement are saved in
the hcmtresult-[timestamp].zip file. You can upload the results to the SAP HANA hardware and
cloud measurement analysis for a more detailed analysis. For more information, see Analyzing
Measurement Results.
5. End all hcmt processes after finishing the measurement. This helps to ensure that the ports are closed for
communication. In particular, remember to close all remote instances, as these may be vulnerable to
threats.

1.3.4 Modifying Execution Plans

You can modify an execution plan to accommodate certain test scenarios, for example, to shorten the test
duration or test for individual performance indicators.

Shorten Test Duration by Adjusting Test Repeat Count

The default test repeat count is 5, that is, the tool performs each test five times. To reduce the number of
repetitions, you can enter a lower RepeatCount value. The value must be ≥ 1, however.

Example: Reducing RepeatCount value

{...
"ExecutionPlan": [
{
...
"ExecutionVariants": [
{
"ScaleOut": {
"Port": "${RemotePort}",
"Hosts": "${Hosts}",
"ConcurrentExecution": true
},
"RepeatCount": "2",
"Description": "CPU Performance",
"InputVector": {
"NumberArithmetricOperations": "2000000",
"PrimeNumbersSearchTime": 10
}
}
]
}
]
...}

Testing for Individual Performance Indicators

Each execution plan is an array of tests. Each test is represented by a unique identifier and a number of
attributes. To test only a particular set of performance indicators, copy the *.json file and remove those parts of
the execution plan that you don't want to test. To do so, search for a test GUID and remove the code block in
between the corresponding braces {}. The example below shows the parts to be removed in bold type. Ensure
that the file contains valid JSON.

"PrimeNumbersSearchTime": 10
}
}
