RedHat Openshift Containized SAP HANA On IBM Power

This document discusses containerizing SAP HANA and SAP applications on Red Hat OpenShift using IBM Power Systems. It provides an overview of using containers and OpenShift to deploy multiple non-production SAP systems like test and development instances within a single IBM Power System using less storage. Ansible scripts are used to automate building and deploying the SAP container images in OpenShift. The accompanying IBM Redbook further details setting up the OpenShift infrastructure and automating the installation and operation of SAP systems as containers on Power with Ansible.

Solution Design Overview

Components required to create


a containerized instance from
on-premises instance

 Two types of containers:


• SAP HANA binaries (excluding data)
• ASCS (Central Instance) and the PAS
(dialog instance (DI))

 Persistent data on NFS share, which is


outside of your Red Hat OpenShift cluster

 GitHub, Build Server, and Red Hat Ansible


Tower infrastructure services

 Red Hat OpenShift Image Registry to create


and deploy the container images
Traditional Implementation of Non-Production HANA DB

• Each LPAR will contain one


LPAR 1
SAP HANA database with
corresponding database storage
• Support for Production and Non-
production SAP HANA databases
LPAR 2
• Requires 3x storage

LPAR 3
Red Hat OpenShift implementation of SAP HANA

• Multiple SAP HANA


databases can be within LPAR 1
a single LPAR Delta DB 1
