Certified SAP HANA Profiles and Intelligent Placement Filters on IBM Power Virtual Server

By KONDAREDDY DUMPA posted Sat May 03, 2025 04:36 AM

  

SAP HANA on the IBM Cloud platform provides faster provisioning, affordable scaling, and reduced downtime. IBM® Power® Virtual Server provides Linux stock images for SAP HANA and SAP NetWeaver applications.

SAP HANA can be deployed on the following IBM Power servers within Power Virtual Server data centers and can be deployed using the UI, CLI, API, or Terraform.

  • Power10: S1022, E1050, and E1080
  • Power9: E980

A SAP HANA certified instance or profile on IBM Power Virtual Server defines attributes, such as physical CPU cores and RAM, which determine the size and performance capabilities of the virtual server instance.

SAP HANA Placement Filters:

Deploying SAP HANA workloads in PowerVS requires strict compliance rules, which must be enforced during deployment and maintained during VM movements for planned or unplanned maintenance. Similar rules apply to other workloads like EPIC and IBM i, though with varying complexity. To ensure compliance and support, these rules need to be integrated into the PowerVC layer as placement filters, enabling proper validation during deployment, resize, migration, and remote restarts.

Few of the baseline requirement points for SAP HANA

  • SAP HANA VMs are deployed always as dedicated cores 
  • SAP HANA VMs have minimum 4 cores for each of the VMs
  • SAP HANA VMs should not be deployed on S922 VMs

SAP HANA deployment rules for # number of VMs allowed

If SAP HANA VMs are to be deployed then the rules are different for number of VMs allowed based on each system type. Below are the list of VMs allowed each system types

  •      S1022: 4 VMs in total
  •      E1050:  8 VMs in total
  •      E1080: 16 VMs in total
  •      E980: 16 VMs in total

Scenarios for more details SPP Count:

When counting VMs by system type using the Shared Processor Pool (SPP), the count is either 0 or 1. If any VM exists in the default or a custom SPP, it's counted as 1—regardless of the number of VMs or pools. Only VMs with dedicated cores are counted individually, whether they're SAP HANA, AIX, IBM i, or Linux. 

Few Example:

  • E980/E1080: Max VM allowed are16 VMs => 15 VMs + 1 SPP  (15 VMs includes all VMs including SAP HANA or any VMs on that host using dedicated cores)
  • S1022: Max VM allowed are 4 VMs => No VM’s on in default and custom SPP à 4 SAP VMs max can be deployed
  • S1022: Max VM allowed are 4 VMs => 4 VMs - AIX/IBM i/Linux in default SPP, and 2 custom SPP à 3 SAP VMs max can be deployed
  • S1022: Max VM allowed are 4 VMs => 3 AIX/IBM i/Linux  VMs in default SPP, and 2 custom SPP, and 2 Dedicated Core AIX VM à 1 SAP VMs max can be deployed

Workload specific rules for Host types:  

  •     SAP: cannot be deployed on S922
  •      EPIC: not supported on s922 and s1022
  •      IBM i: operating system is not supported on E950s or E1050s
  •      Power10 systems only support IBM i version 7.3 and above
  •      Power compatibility mode is set based on E880 or E980 type
  •      Only E980, and E1080 support the “high band storage connectivity group”

Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) on IBM Power for SAP HANA:

SAP HANA profiles on IBM Power use either SMT4 or SMT8 mode, allowing multiple threads per physical core.

  • SMT4: 4 threads per core, seen as 4 logical processors.
  • SMT8: 8 threads per core, seen as 8 logical processors.

IBM P9 & P10 Certified Instances/profiles for SAP HANA

SAP HANA VMs are deployed on the appropriate machine type based on the selected profile ID and its associated default system type.

Power9 certified SAP Hana Profiles :

CNP

Custom

Ideal for test or development use only. These profiles are not intended for production use and are not supported or certified for SAP production.

USH1

Small

Suitable for balanced workloads that require less CPU and storage consumption.

UMH

Ultra Memory

Provides the highest vCPU-to-memory ratios for serving in-memory OLTP databases, such as SAP HANA.

BH1

Balanced

Suitable for midsize databases and common cloud applications with moderate traffic.

MH1

Memory

Suited for server OLAP databases, such as SAP NetWeaver.

CH1

Compute

Suitable for CPU-intensive workloads, such as high web traffic, production batch processing, and front-end web servers.

Power10-Certified SAP HANA Profiles:

  • SR2 – SAP Rise: Custom profiles allow flexible combinations of physical CPU cores and memory. Only configurations certified by SAP for production use—listed in the Certified and Supported SAP HANA Hardware Directory—are supported. Deployment must be done via UI, CLI, or API.
  • SH2 – Small: Ideal for lightweight, balanced workloads with lower CPU and storage demands.
  • CH2 – Compute: Optimized for CPU-intensive workloads such as high web traffic, batch processing, or front-end servers.
  • BH2 – Balanced: Designed for mid-sized databases and standard cloud applications with moderate usage.
  • MH2 – Memory: Tailored for memory-heavy workloads like OLAP databases, including SAP NetWeaver.

SAP full system profiles:

SAP HANA profiles that use all or most of the system resources are referred to as 'full system profiles'. You can deploy SAP HANA using full system profiles on a system if no virtual machines are deployed on the system.

SAP Hana Billing & metering

For SAP HANA, the billing parts for processor and memory are distinct. The charges on these distinct parts appear on the monthly invoices.

  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_CORE_HOUR                            SAP HANA workload custom profile (cnp) - IBM Power E980 core-hour
  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_GIGABYTE_HOUR                   SAP HANA workload custom profile (cnp) - IBM Power E980 memory gigabyte-hour
  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_BH1_CORE_HOUR                  SAP HANA workload balanced profile (bh1) - IBM Power E980 core-hour
  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_CH1_CORE_HOUR                  SAP HANA workload compute optimized profile (ch1) - IBM Power E980 core-hour
  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_MH1_CORE_HOUR                 SAP HANA workload memory optimized profile (mh1) - IBM Power E980 core-hour
  • POWER_IAAS_HANA_UMH_CORE_HOUR                SAP HANA workload ultra-memory optimized profile (umh) - IBM Power E980 core-hour

The new MH2, BH2, and CH2 profile families for Power10 will be metered similar to the existing MH1, BH1, and CH1 profiles used on E980 systems but having separate part numbers based on assigned cores and memory.
