3 Installation or Update ● Installation

You can install the SAP HANA studio with one of the following methods:

○ Use the GUI-based Installation Manager, which is based on the program hdbsetup.This is the recommended installation method.

○ Use the hdbinst program at the command line.● Update

You can update the SAP HANA Studio with one of the following methods:

○ Use the SAP HANA lifecycle manager (HLM) to set up the update server for the SAP HANA studio update and regularly provide the newest installation files. Whenever you perform an automated update, the installation files for the SAP HANA studio update are stored and updated inside the SAP HANA database in a delivery unit with a package that contains the installation files.This is the recommend update method.

○ Manually set up the repository for the update site using the hdbinst program on any server with the call option --copy_repository=<target_repository_path>, then manually configure it to be available to the SAP HANA studio installations.This is suitable for large landscapes with multiple SAP HANA studios where the update needs to be centrally available. There is no dependency on the SAP HANA lifecycle manager.

○ Download the latest version of SAP HANA studio from SAP Service Marketplace, and use the GUI-based Installation Manager, which is based on the program hdbsetup.This is suitable for quick updates of individual SAP HANA studios where there is no infrastructure.

○ Download the latest version of SAP HANA studio from SAP Service Marketplace, and use the hdbinst program at the command line.This is suitable for quick updates of individual SAP HANA studios where there is no infrastructure.

○ See SAP Note SAP Note 1828400 SAPUI5 tools disappeared after updating HANA Studio.

4.4 Manually Setting Up the Update Site for an SAP HANA Studio Update

We recommend that you use the SAP HANA lifecycle manager to set up the update server for the SAP HANA studio update and regularly provide the newest installation files. For more information, see "Performing an Automated Update" in the .SAP HANA Update and Configuration Guide.

If necessary, you can manually set up the update site for an SAP HANA studio update. This method uses the SAP HANA XS Web server as the update server. This method creates a delivery unit with a package that contains the installation files for the SAP HANA studio update.

You perform this setup as <sid>adm on the SAP HANA system.

1. Create the directory where you want to store the file with the delivery unit. Call the command as follows:mkdir /<PATH_TO_STORE_PACKED_DU>In this example, the directory is created inside the directory structure that is recommended for SAP HANA systems:mkdir /hana/shared/ABC/hdbstudio_delivery_unit

2. Create a delivery unit with a package that contains the installation files for the SAP HANA studio update. The delivery unit is stored in a.tgz file. Call the command as follows:hdbeuspack -e /<PATH_TO_STORE_PACKED_DU> -a <DU_Name> <PACKAGE_PREFIX> <CONTENT_DIRECTORY>In this example, the command creates the file HANA_STUDIO.tgz in the directory /hana/shared/ABC/hdbstudio_delivery_unit:hdbeuspack -e /hana/shared/ABC/hdbstudio_delivery_unit -a HANA_STUDIO sap.hana.studio /tmp/downloads/hdbstudio/studio/repository

3. Import the delivery unit, which is stored in the .tgz file, into the SAP HANA repository. Call the command as follows:hdbupdrep -s <sid> --delivery_unit=/<PATH_TO_STORE_PACKED_DU>




In this example, the command imports the delivery unit HANA_STUDIO into the package sap/hana/studio of the SAP HANA database (<sid>=ABC):/usr/sap/ABC/SYS/global/hdb/install/bin/hdbupdrep -s ABC --delivery_unit=/hana/shared/ABC/hdbstudio_delivery_unit/HANA_STUDIO.tgz

NoteRepeat this procedure whenever necessary.
