Using SAP HANA studio, connected to either the SystemDB or individual tenants, navigate to Configuration -> global.ini -> backup and set the values for the following fields:

Field

Value

catalog_backup_parameter_file

File system location of the file setup for the tenant or database in Step 2.

catalog_bakup_using_backint

true

data_backup_parameter_file

File system location of the file setup for the tenant or database in Step 2.

log_backup_parameter_file

File system location of the file setup for the tenant or database in Step 2.

log_backup_using_backint

true

paralell_data_backup_backint_channels

Set to a value (up to 32) to which each tenant/database should run parallel data streaming operations through backint. Each stream in Backint will translate to a data stream to the FlashBlade.

Note:

This value will be applied on a per host basis. If 16 parallel data backup channels are set in a 4 worker nodes environment , then the number of concurrent streams will be 32.

Note:

Any values set for the System will then be applied to any tenants by default. To override this value set any specific values for each tenant.

Note:

It is possible to have the configuration file in a different location on each host and then to set this value on a per-host basis. The best practice would be to have this file located on the SAP HANA shared filesystem and all of the nodes to reference the same location.
