It is possible to create SAP HANA Data Snapshots (previously known as storage snapshots) only using HDBSQL (HANA Database structured query language). Typically this can be done from the following interfaces:

  • The SAP HANA Client installed on a system sending commands in the form <hdbsql> -n <hostname:3<instance number (00)><port number>> -i <instance number (00)> -u <user> -p <password> <Command>
  • SAP HANA Studio SQL Query Console
  • SAP HANA Cockpit Database Explorer
