Hi,
We installed HANA 1.0 SPS09 on SLES 11 SP3 using Lenovo X3650 M5 (Supported TDI entry-level system).
The box has two Xeon E5-2670 v3 with 768GB Memory. Four SSDs in RAID for /hana/log and lots of HDD in RAIDs for /hana/data.
The HANA DB was successfully installed and ERP 6.0 EHP7 was also successfully installed on it (no sFIN).
We also did initial client copy and this DEV system is ready for consultant to use.
Then I tried to run HWCCT on it (a pre-test before run it on PRD).
I guess the latest one for SPS09 is "HWCCT_97_1-20011536.SAR". I downloaded it and execute ./hwval -f test_config_all.json
The result shows several "FAILED" items which I can't figure out the reason, hope you guys can give me some hint:
FAILED #1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
validateRuntime : FAILED
severity : HIGH
reason : Runtime environment in this Distribution is not ready for HANA DSPS07 and HANA SPS08. Please see SAP Note 2001528 for more detail
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My explanation: SPS09 was successfully installed and this box is SLES SP3 which shouldn't have GCC4.7 issue.
I can start up HANA without problem. No clue why got this error !
FAILED #2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
validateCPU : FAILED
severity : HIGH
reason : CPU Model Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 v3 @2.30GHz is not Supported
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My explanation: The TDI server directory web page shows me that Xeon E5-2670 v3 is supported.
No clue why got this error ! Maybe 2.30GHz to slow ?
FAILED #3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
validateApplianceSystemType : FAILED
severity : HIGH
reason : 'System x3650 M5: -[546262v]-' is not a certified HANA Server. Due to new Validations this information ...<skip>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My explanation: I guess HWCCT only recognize "HANA Appliance" and know nothing about TDI "Supported" system.
But why all installation document tell us to run this tool for TDI systems ???? How can you show this result to customer?
Can anyone tell me the difference between "Certified" and "Supported" ?
FAILED #4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
validateMemory : FAILED
severity : HIGH
reason : TotalMemory Size is not an allowed memory configuration
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My explanation: 768GB is not allowed ?
That's all I got. Customer bought wrong HW ?
Any input is welcome and thanks
