4 When prompted for current (UNIX) password, enter the temporary password again: HXEHana1

5. When prompted for New password, enter a strong password with at least 8 characters. If your password is not strong enough, the system logs you off andyou must log in again.

Tip: Your strong password should contain numbers, upper and lower case letters, and special characters. It cannot contain systematic values, like stringsin ascending or descending numerical or alphabetical order. Strong password example: 5342_E#1_GcbaFd!

Note: Do not use this password example, since it is public and not secure. This example is for illustrative purposes only and must not be used on yoursystem. Define your own strong password.

6. When prompted to Retype new password, enter your strong password again.

7. A configuration script will run if this is the first login. When prompted for HANA database master password, enter a strong password.

Tip: Make a note of this password, since you'll need it later. You can enter the same password you used in step 5, or a new password.

Entering the HANA database master password changes the SYSTEM user password. If you installed the server + applications virtual machine, it alsochanges the user passwords for these users to the password you entered:

XSA_ADMIN

XSA_DEV

XSA_SHINE

TEL_ADMIN

The configuration script does not change any user passwords in the tenant database. (The tenant database is stopped by default when you install SAP HANA2.0, express edition.) If you start a tenant database at a later time, you must manually change user passwords in the tenant database.

8. When prompted to Confirm "HANA database master password", enter the strong password again.

9. When prompted Do you need to use the proxy server to access the internet? enter Y or N.

Contact your IT administrator for your company's proxy settings. If you are inside a corporate firewall, you might use a proxy for connecting to http andhttps servers.

If Y, enter your proxy host name, proxy port number, and (if desired) a comma-separated list of hosts that do not need a proxy. Proxy host name needs afully qualified domain name.

You will check your proxy settings using HANA Cockpit later in this tutorial.

10. When prompted to Proceed with configuration? enter Y.

11. Wait for the success message Congratulations! SAP HANA, express edition 2.0 is configured.

The configuration script does not change any user passwords in the tenant database. (The tenant database is stopped by default when you install SAP HANA 2.0,express edition.) If you start a tenant database at a later time, you must manually change user passwords in the tenant database.

SAP HANA 2.0, express edition is now running.

Test your Server InstallationVerify that all required SAP HANA 2.0, express edition services are running properly.

1. From the hxehost:hxeadm> command prompt enter:

HDB info

You should see the following services:

hdbcompileserver

hdbpreprocessor

hdbnameserver

hdbdiserver (Server + applications virtual machine only)

hdbwebdispatcher

Note: It can take a few minutes after server startup for all services to start. Allow all services to start running before calling HDB info.

2. If you don't see these services, restart the database.

Enter:

HDB stop && HDB start

Note: After restarting, allow sufficient time for all services to start running before proceeding.

Record Your hxehost IP AddressRecord the hxehost IP address so you can reference it later to connect using SAP HANA client tools.

1. At the command prompt, enter:

/sbin/ifconfig

2. Locate the IP address, listed under the eth0 interface as inet addr .

In the following example, the IP address is 172.25.86.13:

Edit the /etc/hosts FileThe hxehost IP address is private to the VM. In order for applications on your laptop (like your web browser) to access hxehost , add the hxehost IP addressto your laptop's hostname map. The hostname map is your laptop's /etc/hosts file. You must edit /etc/hosts if you want to access any XS Advancedapplications, or use HANA Cockpit, from your laptop.

Edit /etc/hosts on Windows

If you installed the VM installation package to a Windows machine, follow these steps to update the etc/hosts file.

1. On your Windows laptop, navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc .

2. In Administrator mode, open hosts in Notepad. See your operating system Help for information on opening applications in Administrator mode.

3. In a new uncommented row, add the VM IP address and hxehost . Save your changes.

Tip: Spacing is important. Make sure your hosts file in Notepad looks like this image.

Edit /etc/hosts on Mac and Linux

If you installed the VM installation package to a Mac or Linux machine, follow these steps to update the etc/hosts file.

1. From your Linux host OS (not the VM guest) access your Linux client editor.

2. Run this command:

sudo sh - c 'echo <hxehost IP address> hxehost >> /etc/hosts'

Test XSC, XSA, and Web IDE (Server + Applications Virtual Machine Only)If you installed the Server + Applications Virtual Machine package ( hxexsa.ova ), test your XS installations and Web IDE.

Note: Make sure you edited your /etc/hosts file before starting this procedure.

1. Check that the XSEngine is running. From your host OS (not the VM guest) open a browser and enter:

http://<hxehost IP address>:8090

You recorded the IP address earlier in this tutorial in topic Record Your hxehost IP Address. A success page displays. This indicates that XSC is running:

2. Go back to your VM. Log in to XSA services:

xs login -u XSA_ADMIN -p <password> -s SAP

You specified this password when you were prompted for HANA database master password at the beginning of this tutorial.

3. Check for an API endpoint showing https://hxehost:39030 . If you see this entry, XSA installed correctly.

4. View the list of XSA applications. Enter:

xs apps

© 2017 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.

Note: When you run the xs apps command for the first time, it may take 1-2 minutes for the system to return the list of XSA applications.

5. Check that the application webide shows STARTED in the list of XSA applications , and has 1/1 instances. (If the list shows 0/1 in the instance column, theapplication is not started.)

Make a note of the URL for webide .

Tip: The command xs apps | grep webide returns the webide row only.

6. Test your Web IDE connection. Enter the URL for Web IDE in a browser on your laptop.

Example: https://hxehost:53075

7. Log on to Web IDE using the XSA_DEV user. You specified the password earlier in this tutorial in the section Change the Default Passwords for Other Users.

If you are prompted to change your password, follow the instructions.

8. Go back to your VM. Check that the application cockpit-admin-web-app shows STARTED in the list of XSA applications and has 1/1 instances.

Make a note of the URL for cockpit-admin-web-app .

Tip: The command xs apps | grep cockpit-admin-web-app returns the cockpit-admin-web-app row only.

9. Check that the application xsa-admin shows STARTED in the list of XSA applications and has 1/1 instances.

Make a note of the URL for xsa-admin .

Tip: The command xs apps | grep xsa-admin returns the xsa-admin row only.

10. In a browser on your laptop, enter the cockpit-admin-web-app URL you noted in step 8.

The Cockpit logon page displays.

11. Log on to Cockpit as user XSA_ADMIN . You specified the password earlier in this tutorial in Change the Default Passwords for Other Users.

12. If you are inside a corporate firewall and use a proxy for connecting to http and https servers, you need to identify your proxy settings and add them toCockpit.

Note: If you are not inside a firewall, you can ignore this step and skip to the next topic.

You set your proxy settings earlier in this tutorial.

In this example using Internet Explorer on Windows 10, notice how connections use a proxy server on port 8080.

4. Follow the tutorial How to download and install the HANA Eclipse plugin.

TelemetryWhen you install SAP HANA 2.0, express edition, telemetry is enabled by default. You can disable telemetry after installation is complete. Telemetry sendsanonymous performance statistics and usage statistics to SAP, so that SAP can focus development efforts on areas most vital to the SAP HANA 2.0, expressedition customer base.

Important: Your privacy is critical to SAP. Telemetry collects anonymous usage information while ensuring complete privacy. No identifying informationor private information is collected, and you can opt out of telemetry at any time.

If you are inside a corporate firewall and use a proxy for connecting to http and https servers, you need to identify your proxy settings, log in to Cockpit, andupdate the Cockpit Settings > Proxy page.

Note: If you do not update the Cockpit proxy settings, telemetry will not work properly. For instructions on specifying your proxy settings in Cockpit,see the Test XSC, XSA, and Web IDE (Server + Applications Virtual Machine Only) section.

Disable and Enable Telemetry Using SQLDisable Telemetry if you wish to stop sending anonymous telemetry data to SAP.

1. Start SAP HANA 2.0, express edition and log in as hxeadm .

2. Run:

/usr/sap/<sid>/home/bin/hxe_telemetry.sh -i 90 -u SYSTEM -p <your_password> -d SystemDB --disable

Tip: If you installed using the Virtual Machine method, <sid> is HXE .

3. To re-enable telemetry, run:

/usr/sap/<sid>/home/bin/hxe_telemetry.sh -i 90 -u SYSTEM -p <your_password> -d SystemDB --enable

Tip: If you installed using the Virtual Machine method, <sid> is HXE .

Tip: If you want to learn more about the hxe_telemetry.sh script, type ./hxe_telemetry.sh --help

Installing ClientsThis section refers to the laptop with SAP HANA 2.0, express edition as the server machine, and your local machine as the client machine.

Installing XS CLI Client

The XS advanced client-tools bundle xs.onpremise.runtime.client_<platform>-<version>.zip also includes the archive (xs_javascript-1.3.0-bundle.tar.gz) , which includes a selection of mandatory Node.js packages developed by SAP for use with the Node.js applications

running in the XS advanced run time.

You can use the XS command line client to perform a wide-variety of developer- and administrator-related tasks. For example, in the role of a developer, you canuse the XS CLI to connect to the XS advanced run time installed on the express edition machine, log on as a specific user, deploy and manage your applications.

XS CLI Client PrerequisitesXS advanced is installed on the SAP HANA 2.0, express edition machine (the server host).

You have access to the Internet from your client machine.

You have logon access to the SAP HANA 2.0, express edition database with the privileges to create SAP HANA users (for example, SYSTEM).

© 2017 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.

Install the XS CLI ClientInstall the command line client for XS advanced on your client machine.

In this procedure, you learn how to use the XS CLI to connect to SAP HANA.

1. Using a compression utility such as WinZip or Unzip, extract either xs.onpremise.runtime.client_ntamd64.zip for Windows or xs.onpremise.runtime.client_linuxx86_64.zip for Linux.

The system will create this folder:

xs.onpremise.runtime.client_<version>

2. Check that the XS advanced run time is installed and available on the server machine.

Enter the following URL in your Web browser:

https://hxehost:39030/v2/info

The response displayed in the Web browser is a JSON string with details that indicate a successful connection to the XSA controller. This connection test isimportant as you want to make sure the connection exists before you attempt it from within the API command.

3. Check that the XS client for XS advanced is installed and available.

The XS client tools are required to connect to the XS advanced run time on SAP HANA and deploy your XS advanced applications.

On your client machine, open a command window and run the following commands:

Note Linux users should run this command as <sid>adm .

xs help xs -v

If you see output indicated Client version, XS is installed.

4. Connect to the XS advanced controller on the SAP HANA 2.0, express edition server.

Specify the URL of the API end point on the SAP HANA server you want to connect to:

xs api https://hxehost:39030

Note: This command may fail due to a missing SSL certificate. This note shows you how to set up a certificate on the client so it can connect to theserver. Copy the correct certificate to your client from the SAP HANA 2.0, express edition server.

Open a command session on the server machine or open a PuTTY session to the server machine. From the command prompt, login as sudo andnavigate to the certificate. The certificate default.root.crt.pem is typically located here:

<installation_path>/HXE/xs/controller_data/controller/ssl-pub/router

For example, where <installation_path> = /hana/shared :

/hana/shared/HXE/xs/controller_data/controller/ssl-pub/router/default.root.crt.pem

Copy the certificate to a folder on the server where you can easily access it.

Using an FTP client or the scp command, send a copy of the certificate from your server machine to a safe location on your client machine.

FTP example:

/<path>/default.root.crt.pem

scp example:

scp <server_machine_user>@<ip_address_server>:<file_destination>/default.root.crt.pem <client_machine_user>@<ip_address_client>:<your_desired_filepath>/

© 2017 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.

Exit your FTP and Putty sessions and return to your client machine. Try the previous command again, but use the -cacert command and specifythe local certificate you just copied.

xs api https://hxehost:39030 -caert <copied_filepath>/default.root.crt.pem

5. From the client machine, log on to the XS advanced run time.

You log on to the SAP HANA instance specified in the API end point set in a previous step. SAP HANA provides a default user XSA_ADMIN with administratorpermissions; you can use this user ID to test the logon. However, it is recommended to create a new user with more limited permissions, which you can use tolog on for developer tasks.

xs login -u XSA_ADMIN -p <password>

Note: The password is assigned to the XSA_ADMIN user during SAP HANA 2.0, express edition installation.

6. Test your connection to XSA. Run the following command to view XS applications on the SAP HANA 2.0, express edition server.

xs apps

Troubleshooting

Virtual Machine: Checking Resource Usage

Issue

You are having memory issues on your VM and want to check resource usage.

Solution

If you have HANA studio, right-click on the system and select Configuration and Monitoring > Open Administration and check the Overview and Landscapetabs for anything in red.

If you don't have HANA Studio, run the following queries in hdbsql to view SAP HANA resource usage:

select service_name, round(effective_allocation_limit/1024/1024/1024, 1) as MemLimit,round(total_memory_used_size/1024/1024/1024,1) as MemUsed from m_service_memory;

If the MemUsed is close to the MemLimit , you may encounter problems allocating memory.

Alternatively, you can run the Linux free command at the command line to see free resources:

free -g

The key number is in the second row (-/+ buffers/cache) in the free column. If this number is low, (e.g. 0 GB) you may have run out of memory when performingyour recent operation.

You can also run the following command to see if you are running out of disk space on the VM's filesystem :

df -h

Look for the Use% for the /dev/sda1 filesystem . If it is down to just a few GB, you may have run out of disk space when performing your recent operation.
