Dear experts,
I am having an issue due to the time change in our SAP HANA DATABASE. We have a SAP BW connected with a SAP Hana Database, BW is on Windows, and HANA is on SuSe.
During the time change, it seems there was an issue in the SuSe server which didn't automatically change the time. So this, I believe, created inconsistencies in the database.
I restored the SAP Hana database to before the time change and after a SPS update that I performed, but I still cannot get the SAP BW application up. Everytime I do, it stops a few minutes laters with ZDATE_LARGE_DIFFERENCE errors, and saying "there's a large difference between the application server and database".
Now, the application server and the SuSe host have the same hour (WEST correctly). However, if I look at the logs on SAP HANA (for example, availability.log)... I can see that the time is wrong, it is 17:00 instead of 18:00 (for example).
What could be the cause? I mean, I don't know what is controlling the time that SAP Hana database is internally taking!
I have executed the following command and I see the timezone is set as "WEST" (which is correct):
- select * from M_HOST_INFORMATION where upper(KEY) like '%TIMEZONE%'
Any advise is welcome!!
Thank you!
