Performance tuning and configuration options

The SAP tab in SAP HANA backup policy contains the tuning parameters that can improve the performance of your backups. The settings that affect performance are discussed in this topic.

Table: Tuning parameters for SAP HANA backups

Field

Description

Backint response timeout

This SAP HANA option will wait up to 10 minutes for the backup agent to respond before timing out.

The default value is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

Enable multiple-streams backups

This option divides the backup operation into multiple concurrent streams. A stream corresponds to a job in the activity monitor. For example, if the value is 3, each database is backed up using three jobs. This configuration applies in any situation in which SAP HANA dumps data faster than your tape drive is capable of writing.

The number of backup channels is 1. The range is 1 - 32.

The default value for the threshold to enable parallel backups is 128 GB.

Maximum parallel backup jobs

This option is the number of backup operations to start simultaneously, per database instance. The range is 1 - 32. The default is 1.

You may need to configure other options when you configure two or more parallel backup operations.
