During the setup procedure, the SAP HANA configuration
is adjusted to use the BACKINT for SAP HANA window
to back up the redo logs. SAP HANA regularly
backs up the redo logs to the IBM Storage Protect™.
About this task
The frequency of backups can be adjusted with the SAP HANA configuration
parameter log_backup_timeout_s that is stored
in the persistence section of the global.ini
file. For more information about how to adjust this parameter, see
the SAP HANA documentation.
Procedure

select the database instance to be backed up.
- Right-click the database, and select Back Up.
Alternatively, in the Specify Backup Settings window,
select Backint for the destination type.
- Optional: On the command line, use the SAP HANA SQL
client
hdbsql. For example, the following
