You plan to migrate an SAP ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) production system to Azure. You are reviewing the SAP EarlyWatch Alert report for the system. You need to recommend sizes for the Azure virtual machines that will host the system. Which two sections of the report should you review?
Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
a) Patch Levels under SAP Software Configuration
b) Database and ABAP Load Optimization
c) Hardware Capacity
d) Data Volume Management
e) Hardware Configuration under Landscape
03. You have an on-premises SAP NetWeaver application server and SAP HANA database deployment. You plan to migrate the on-premises deployment to Azure. You provision new Azure virtual machines to host the application server and database roles. You need to initiate SAP Database Migration Option (DMO) with System Move.
On which server should you start Software Update Manager (SUM)?
a) the on-premises application server
b) the virtual machine that will host the application server
c) the virtual machine that will host the database
d) the on-premises database server
You must apply Linux kernel updates to both nodes of the Pacemaker cluster that hosts the BW/4HANA production system, without causing the unplanned failover that the technical requirements prohibit. Which two actions should you perform?
Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
a) Fail the SAP resources over to a virtual machine in the disaster recovery region before you update either node.
b) Place the cluster in maintenance mode before you begin the update.
c) Update and restart one node at a time, and confirm that the cluster is healthy before you start the second node.
d) Remove the STONITH resource from the cluster configuration for the duration of the maintenance window.
e) Stop the Pacemaker service on both nodes at the same time and apply the updates in parallel.
05. An administrator needs to restore an SAP HANA database from backup after corruption. Which service facilitates this operation?
a) Azure Backup for SAP HANA
b) HANA System Replication
c) Azure Site Recovery replication
d) Zone-redundant storage on the data disks
You have an SAP environment that is managed by using VMware vCenter. You plan to migrate the SAP environment to Azure. You need to gather information to identify which compute resources are required in Azure. What should you use to gather the information?
a) Azure Site Recovery Deployment Planner and SAP HANA Cockpit
b) Azure Site Recovery and SAP Quick Sizer
c) Azure Migrate and SAP EarlyWatch Alert reports
d) SAP Quick Sizer and SAP HANA system replication
07. You have an on-premises SAP environment hosted on VMware vSphere that uses Microsoft SQL Server as the database platform. You plan to migrate the environment to Azure. The database platform will remain the same. You need to gather information to size the target Azure environment for the migration. What should you use?
a) the SAP HANA sizing report
b) the SAP EarlyWatch Alert report
c) Azure Advisor
d) Azure Monitor
You are migrating SAP to Azure. The ASCS application servers are in one Azure zone, and the SAP database server in in a different Azure zone. ASCS/ERS is configured for high availability.
During performance testing, you discover increased response times in Azure, even though the Azure environment has better computer and memory configurations than the on-premises environment.
During the initial analysis, you discover an increased wait time for Enqueue. What are three possible causes of the increased wait time?
Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
a) active Enqueue replication
b) network latency between the database server and the SAP application servers
c) misconfigured load balancer rules and health check probes for Enqueue and ASCS
d) disk I/O during Enqueue backup operations
e) a missing Enqueue profile
Your company has an SAP environment that contains the following components:
- SAP systems based on SAP HANA and SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (SAP ASE) that run on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 (SLES 12)
- Multiple SAP applications
The company plans to migrate all the applications to Azure. You need to get a comprehensive list of all the applications that are part of the SAP environment. What should you use?
a) the SAP Solution Manager
b) the network inventory and locations
c) the data volume management report
d) the SAP license information
You are planning the Azure deployment of the BW/4HANA production database. The reporting dataset is already larger than the memory of the largest server in the Lyon datacenter, and the growth trend indicates that it will exceed the memory of the largest SAP-certified virtual machine offered in the region. You need to recommend a database deployment topology that accommodates both the current dataset and its expected growth.
What should you recommend?
a) Deploy the database as a scale-up system on the largest SAP-certified virtual machine that is available in the region, and add memory as the dataset grows.
b) Deploy the database on two virtual machines that are configured for SAP HANA system replication.
c) Deploy the database as a scale-up system and move historical reporting data to an Azure Data Lake that analysts query separately.
d) Deploy the database as a scale-out system across several SAP-certified virtual machines that each host part of the dataset.
