Parameters

Field Description
Host Name/IP Required. The hostname or IP address of the datasource.
Port number Required. Default value: 30015.
Database Required. The name of the database.
Connection property Properties that must be included in the JDBC URL to establish a JDBC connection with the datasource. The required format is property1=value;property2=value, where each property and value pair is separated by a semicolon.
For examples, refer to the database vendor's JDBC documentation.

Configuring SSL:

When you create your server’s public and private key pair or public key certificate, the Common Name (CN) must match the server’s hostname and use the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). The Subject Alternative Name (SAN) must use the server’s hostname with FQDN and the server’s IP.

If SSL is incorrectly configured, the connection fails because the hostname cannot be verified. To bypass a hostname verification error, use the following workaround:

Set the connection property hostNameInCertificate=ServerHostname. Where ServerHostname is the CN that was used in the certificate and not the hostname with which the connection was established.
Custom URL The connection string to the datasource. When the custom URL is not provided, the datasource connection is made by using properties such as the hostname and port number.

CAS (Configuration Auditing System) database instance

If you are a CAS user, configure the CAS database instance.

Field Description
Account Required. The name of the account owner.

The syntax is <SID>adm

Example: hxeadm
Directory Required. The name of the installation directory.

You can specify multiple paths for the database instance directory. Indicate a separate path by using a pipe | with spaces.

For example:

/usr/sap/HXE/home | SID=HXE | logpath=/hana/shared/log | datapath=/hana/shared/data | installpath=/usr/sap .

Where:
  • /usr/sap/HXE/home is the home directory for the instance account.
  • SID=HXE is the system ID. The SAP system ID (SID) is the identifier for the SAP HANA system.
  • logpath=/hana/shared/log is the path to the log directory of the SAP HANA system. The default log location is /hana/log/<SID>.
  • datapath=/hana/shared/data is the path to the data directory of the SAP HANA system. The default data location is /hana/data/<SID>.
  • installpath=/usr/sap is the installation path that is specific to the operating system on which the SAP HANA studio is installed. As an example, for Linux, the installation path is /usr/sap for Linux.

All the paths that are listed in this example are required entries.
