Hi folks,

We're facing the following error after upgrading our Hana instance to revision 102:

"Column store error: search table error: [23057] Internal error during join : invalid input"

while trying to execute a hdbprocedure (called by an XSJS service) that makes a query similar to this:

SELECT COL_1,

              COL_2,

             ...

  FROM TABLE_1 T1

INNER JOIN TABLE_2 T2 ON T1.COL_A  = T2.COL_X

                                     AND T1.COL_B  = T2.COL_Y

                                     ...

                                     AND T1.DATE_1 = IFNULL(T2.DATE_2, T2.DATE_3)

WHERE T2.DATE_3 = P_DATE;

These tables are partitioned by Hash on level 1 and Range by MONTH(DATE_3) on level 2 for Data Pruning.

If we undo the partitioning, the execution completes successfully. Also, if we execute this query manually (outside the proc), it brings data successfully.

We already checked the data and none of these date columns have invalid data. The weird part is that it was working pretty fine when we were using rev 85.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hello!

I have a problem connected with querying HANA calculation view from ABAP.

I generate the SQL statement in ABAP, send it to HANA and get query results.

The SQL statement that I generate in ABAP has to have a lot of distinct WHERE conditions consisting of four fields. The query looks like this:

SELECT fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5, fld6

FROM "_SYS_BIC"."packetname/CV_MY_VIEW"

WHERE (

      (fld1 = 'val11' AND fld2 = 'val12' AND fld3 = 'val13' AND fld 4 = 'val14')

OR (fld1 = 'val21' AND fld2 = 'val22' AND fld3 = 'val23' AND fld 4 = 'val24')

OR (fld1 = 'val31' AND fld2 = 'val32' AND fld3 = 'val33' AND fld 4 = 'val34')

.

.

.

.

     )

When there are less than 83 conditions in WHERE clause, the view is executed by HANA in less than 1 second, returning ~3000 rows.

When there are 83 or more conditions, the execution of a query is hanging for a few minutes and then it drops down with error:

SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search table error:  [9] Memory allocation failed.

I've tried to run the same query from HANA Studio but I get the same error.

Could you please explain me, why is this happening?

Can I do something to be able to send, like, 1000 of conditions, or more, and get the correct result from HANA?

Hello,

I´ve installed the  1.00.102.01.1444147999 Hana revision.

But during the installation of LCaaps component versión I get this error:

But into swdc, I've only to options to select and neither it Works. I've tried to looking for in Archive Support Package, but I don't have anything to download.

What is it the process for this case?

Dear Experts,

Can somebody help me understand why

SELECT TO_DECIMAL(42242.640972,15,15) "to decimal" FROM DUMMY;

does not work and throws numeric over flow exception.

Thank you for your time

Hi All,

Has anyone successfully installed SPS11 using the downloads from the service market place?

I have downloaded the files 3 times and each time I am getting CRC errors during the RAR Extraction process. This seems to be leading to issues during my install process.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Paul

Subsequent install issue:

Hello everyone,

I got confused by referring discussions in forum regarding star join in analytical view and calculation view.

I am giving the following statements to my knowledge, can some one let me know these are right or not

#1. Star join available in calculation view : In this we can get measures from multiple fact tables

#2. Star join available in analytical view : This option available as a node by replacing logical join, this type of star join support only measures from single fact table, it wont support measures from multiple fact tables and it work a star schema like cube in BW

Please provide me details

Thanks in advance

Hi,

we have a SAP Hana 1.0 rev 85.03

Hi,

I'm trying HANA Hadoop Integration using SAP HANA SPS09, Hadoop 2.7.1 and HIVE 1.2.1.

I have followed the videos on the youtube (SAP HANA Academy - SDA : Hadoop Enhancements - 1. Creating User [SPS09] - YouTube) and also read the HANA documents (Administration Guide) on this topic.

All I want to do is to follow the video to run WordCount using HANA Hadoop Integration.

So I have assigned all the necessary privileges to the user and created MR Job Archives, Remote Source and Virtual Functions as shown below:

I have created the mrjobs.

Then I have run the two SQLs successfully.

create remote source hadoop_source

adapter "hadoop"

configuration 'webhdfs_url=http://myserver:50070;webhcat_url=http://myserver:50111'

with credential type 'PASSWORD'

using 'user=hduser;password=hdpass';

create virtual function HADOOP_WORD_COUNT()

RETURNS TABLE ("word" NVARCHAR(60), "count" integer)

package DEV."dev.HanaShared::WordCount"

CONFIGURATION 'enable_remote_cache=true;mapred_jobchain=[{"mapred_input":"/data/mockingbird/",

"mapred_mapper":"sap.WordCountMapper",

"mapred_reducer":"sap.WordCountReducer"}]'

AT HADOOP_SOURCE;

Currently I'm experiencing an issue when executing the last step.

So I wish to check the results:

select * from HADOOP_WORD_COUNT();

But then the console gives me these errors:

Could not execute 'select * from HADOOP_WORD_COUNT()' in 74 ms 384 µs .

SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search table error:  [2620] executor: plan operation failed;

I went to check the log file of my HANA and found these:

pop.setNodeName('$$_SYS_SS2_RETURN_VAR_$$HADOOP_WORD_COUNT')

pop.setUseInternalTable()

pop.addViewAttribute('word', datatype=83, intDigits=60, sqlType=37, sqlLength=60)

Judging from the logs it seems the plan executor fails before the job could be able to be started.

BTW

I can successfully see the controller.jar in hadoop

Also I have uploaded the jars in the lib folder following the administration guide.

I tried different HANAs including SPS09 and SPS10 to perform the integration, all give me the same error.

So my question is has anyone happened to face the same issue?

Or if there is anything wrong with my previous steps?

Thanks in advance.

Hello All,

I have following situation  with a HANA Calculation View output

COLUMN1   COLUMN2   COLUMN3     
TECH111      A11111      MATERAL1  
TECH111      A11112      MATERAL2
TECH111      A11112      MATERAL3
TECH111      A11113      MATERAL4
TECH112      A11113      MATERAL5
TECH112      A11114      MATERAL6
TECH112      A11115      MATERAL7
TECH112      A11116      MATERAL8

I want to get the count for each unique value papering in Column 2

i.e.A11111 appears 1 time, A11112 and A11113 appears 2 time and so on..

And In column 5 I would like to get a Total for All the instances (Sum of Column 4)

So the final output i need is shown below..

COLUMN1    COLUMN2  COLUMN3   ........COLUMN4    ........COLUMN5
TECH111      A11111      MATERAL1        1                    12
TECH111      A11112      MATERAL2        2                    12
TECH111      A11112      MATERAL3        2                    12   
TECH111      A11113      MATERAL4        2                    12
TECH112      A11113      MATERAL5        2                    12
TECH112      A11114      MATERAL6        1                    12
TECH112      A11115      MATERAL7        1                    12
TECH112      A11116      MATERAL8        1                    12

I want to achieve this inside a graphical Calculation view. I tried to create a Calculated Column for the counter but it did not work. There are very limited functions available to use inside a Calculated Column. Do I have to get this done in SQL Script Calculation view? My preference is getting it done in Graphical Calculation view.

Under Distinct values tab of data preview I can see the exact output I want to see but is there any way to have that as a result of my Calc View?

There is something called as counters in the output of a calc view. It appears to be built for this purpose but it always gives a value of 1.

I would appreciate any inputs. Ideas. Thanks.

Hi all,

I have my ecc system on ERP 6.0 EHP6 running on Oracle SPARC hardware (OS is Solaris 10 and DB is Oracle 11g). We are planning to implement SAP HANA in the future and want to have some clarifications regarding this technology:

1) I've read about the SAP HANA appliance. What is its purpose?

2) What is the difference between the appliance and the database?

3) In my case, what will be required, the appliance or I go for a migration to the HANA database?

Hi Experts,

I have created an xsodata file to expose my HANA analytical views to my UI5 application.

The xsodata has nested views making use of navigation to expose data of two views based on a common key MATNR.

However, when i run the xsodata url in my browser for one of the analytical views, I get the following error

"<messagexml:lang="en-US">Service exception: [2048] column store error</message>"

Also, could you please suggest how can I pass input parameters to this xsodata url so that i can fetch material header and related plant information based on the input search string.

The url is :

<server>/ABC/services/product_details.xsodata

I would like to pass MATNR and PRODH in my input parameters.

<servicexmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app"xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2007/app"xml:base="<server>/ABC/services/product_details.xsodata/">

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi folks,

I have 3 single host HANA servers running XS jobs via XS Admin console.  Rev 82.  Now I'm scheduling jobs on my BW HANA servers (Rev 85) and development was fine (single host) but in staging the job when I activate it the status changes to SCHEDULED but the next day when I check it did not run it just stays in SCHEDULED status.  I've a specific user setup to run all jobs and this user has all the same exact roles/privileges in each system.  Scheduler is enabled in configuration on all servers.  I'm stumped why this will not run.  The ONLY difference I can find is that this is the first server I've tried this on that is a distributed system with multiple hosts.  From documentation I can see that my XS job can only run on one host.  When I goto ADMIN CONSOLE and look at services I see two hosts running xsengine service.  I've tried XS Admin console URL for both of these services and I get the same result on both.  Will not run and no errors nor messages in Diagnosis files that I can see.  I also try monitoring system during the scheduled start time of the job and definitely do not see it running.  Any ideas?  I've seen bugs in SPS8 where a job gets stuck in RUNNING status if the server gets shutdown during the runtime however this never even begins to run.  Just to test it wasn't similar issue I created a second xsjob file and same result.  Stuck in SCHEDULED status.

Thanks,

Hello,

I´m with some doubts regarding one thing about the management of each HANA instances. At this moment I have one appliance server that has 130Gb of RAM and it has one SAP Hana system (instance) installed (SID Hana: HL1) but today I want to install in the same appliance another SAP Hana system (other instance) called HL2! But my goal is to split the RAM memory between these two Hana systems (HL1 and HL2). During the installation of HL1 I didn´t restrict the maximum memory allocation value and I think I should had done this restriction right here at this stage, but I didn´t...

I´m talking about this following screen during the installation of SAP Hana system (HL1):

So now, as I said before, I want to install another SAP Hana system (HL2) in the same server/appliance but before doing that I want to know how can I manage the maximum memory allocation that is set to the HL1 instance and if it´s possible to decrease the allocated memory to 75Gb RAM! How can I do that? Is there any parameter that is set to the HL1 instance...!? Can you help me please?

Thank you,

Hello,

Is it possible to create HANA users as a repository object without schema?

If not what is the implication of creating 1000 users with 1000 schemas in the HANA DB.

Hello,

We are using our HANA machine for 3 purposes:

1. Loading data\ETL with BW powered by HANA

2. HANA modeling and BO reports

We don’t want that:

1. BO users will be influenced by the BW loads

2. BW loads will get slower (or get OOM)  because BO query

3. SLT loads (or HANA delta merge) will influence BW or BO

Does it make sense to use Multitenant Database Containers (MDC) for these proposes.

How flexible is it to move memory between the tenants?

Is it possible to control it by time – meaning at night to have more memory for the BW and in the morning to have more memory for BO reports?

Thanks,

Amir
