Planning your backup and recovery strategy for SAP HANA.
When to Create a Data Backup
You should create a data backup in these situations:
- After the initial load: When you first load data into the system.
- At regular intervals: Scheduling regular backups to run automatically.
- Before upgrading the database software: To recover in case of upgrade failure.
- After log writing interruptions: For example, after changing the log mode.
It's strongly recommended to schedule regular data backups to a secure location. A typical backup plan includes:
- Daily data snapshot
- Weekly data backup (in the file system or using third-party tools)
- Automatic log backups
Regularly delete full backups and backup generations that are no longer needed. This ensures that your SAP HANA database remains recoverable without excessive storage use.
