Automated SAP Deployments in Azure Cloud

Master Branch's status:

This repository contains a set of highly customizable templates that can be used to automatically deploy complex SAP landscapes in the Azure Cloud. The templates are split into:

Terraform modules which deploy the infrastructure components (such as VMs, network, storage) in Azure and then call the:
Ansible playbooks which run different roles to install and configure SAP HANA and required applications on the already deployed infrastructure.

Scenarios

HANA single-node instance

single-node HANA instance

HANA high-availability pair

single-node HANA instance, two-tier HSR (primary/secondary)
Pacemaker high-availability cluster, fully configured with SBD and SAP/Azure resource agents

Usage

A typical deployment lifecycle will require the following steps:

Preparing your environment (this has to be done only once)
Getting the SAP packages
Adjusting the templates
Running the deployment
Verifying the deployment
Deleting the deployment (optional)

Getting Started

In this simple example, we'll deploy a simple single-node SAP HANA instance (specifically, HANA DB 1.0 SPS12 PL17).

Preparing your environment

You have several options from where to run the automated deployment:
- Local deployments: Open a shell on your local machine (Works on a Unix based system (i.e. MacOS, Linux, Cygwin, or Windows Subsystem for Linux)).
- VM deployment: Connect to your VM using an SSH client.
- Cloud Shell deployment: From your Azure Portal, open your Cloud Shell (>_ button in top bar).

*Note: Cloud Shell comes pre-installed with Terraform 0.12 which is now compatible with our scripts.

Install the following software on your deployment machine as needed (not required for deployments on Cloud Shell):
- Azure CLI
- Terraform

Note: The scripts have been tested with Terraform v0.12.2 and provider.azurerm v1.30.1

Ansible

Note: The scripts were built and tested with Ansible 2.6.x.

Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/Azure/sap-hana.git

Log into your Azure subscription:
```
az login
```
Create a service principal that will be used to manage Azure resources on your behalf:
```
az ad sp create-for-rbac --name <service-principal-name> --password <service-principal-password>
```
(Note: You can find additional information on creating service principals on this page.)

You will see an output similar to this:

  "appId": "<service-principal-app-id>",
  "displayName": "<service-principal-name>",
  "name": "http://<service-principal-name>",
  "password": "<service-principal-password>",
  "tenant": "<service-principal-tenant-id>"
}

Set the details of the service principal as environment variables:

# configure service principal for Ansible
export AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID='<azure-subscription-id>'
export AZURE_CLIENT_ID='<service-principal-app-id>'
export AZURE_SECRET='<service-principal-password>'
export AZURE_TENANT='<service-principal-tenant-id>'

# configure service principal for Terraform
export ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID='<azure-subscription-id>'
export ARM_CLIENT_ID='<service-principal-app-id>'
export ARM_CLIENT_SECRET='<service-principal-password>'
export ARM_TENANT_ID='<service-principal-tenant-id>'

(Note: While you set the environment variables every time, the recommended way is to create a file set-sp.sh and copy the above contents into it; this way, you can just run the script by executing source set-sp.sh.)

Getting the SAP packages

Navigate to the SAP Software Download Center (SWDC).
Search for the following packages required for the single-node HANA scenario and download them to your local machine:

SWDC filename	Package name	OS	Version	Template parameter
`SAPCAR_1110-80000935.EXE`	SAPCAR	Linux x86_64	7.21	`url_sap_sapcar_linux`
`IMDB_SERVER100_122_xx-10009569.SAR`	HANA DB Server	Linux x86_64	122.xx (SPS12) for HANA DB 1.00	`url_sap_hdbserver`

(Note: See the section on Required SAP Downloads for a full list of SAP packages, if you want to install additional applications on top of HANA, such as XSA.)

In the Azure Portal, create a Storage Account. (Note: Please make sure to choose a region close to you to improve transfer speed; the SAP bits are quite large.)
In the storage account you just created, create a new Blob Storage.
In the new Blob Storage that you just created, create a new Container and name it sapbits.
Upload each of the SAP packages you downloaded in step 2 and take note of the download URL.

Adjusting the templates

Change into the directory for the HANA single-node scenario:
```
cd sap-hana/deploy/vm/modules/single_node_hana/
```

Use a text editor to create a Terraform variables file terraform.tfvars, adapting the download URLs accordingly:

# Azure region to deploy resource in; please choose the same region as your storage from step 3 (example: "westus2")
az_region = "westus2"

# Name of resource group to deploy (example: "demo1")
az_resource_group = "demo1"

# Unique domain name for easy VM access (example: "hana-on-azure1")
# Domain name should be all lower case and have no special characters except '-'.
az_domain_name = "hana-on-azure1"

# Size of the VM to be deployed (example: "Standard_E8s_v3")
# For HANA platform edition, a minimum of 32 GB of RAM is recommended
vm_size = "Standard_E8s_v3"

# Path to the public SSH key to be used for authentication (e.g. "~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub")
sshkey_path_public = "~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"

# Path to the corresponding private SSH key (e.g. "~/.ssh/id_rsa")
sshkey_path_private = "~/.ssh/id_rsa"

# OS user with sudo privileges to be deployed on VM (e.g. "demo")
vm_user = "demo"

# SAP system ID (SID) to be used for HANA installation (example: "HN1")
sap_sid = "HN1"

# SAP instance number to be used for HANA installation (example: "01")
sap_instancenum = "01"

# URL to download SAPCAR binary from (see step 6)
url_sap_sapcar_linux = "https://XXX"

# URL to download HANA DB server package from (see step 6)
url_sap_hdbserver = "https://XXX"

# Password for the OS sapadm user
pw_os_sapadm = "XXX"

# Password for the OS <sid>adm user
pw_os_sidadm = "XXX"

# Password for the DB SYSTEM user
# (In MDC installations, this will be for SYSTEMDB tenant only)
pw_db_system = "XXX"

# Password for the DB XSA_ADMIN user
pwd_db_xsaadmin = "XXX"

# Password for the DB SYSTEM user for the tenant DB (MDC installations only)
pwd_db_tenant = "XXX"

# Password for the DB SHINE_USER user (SHINE demo content only)
pwd_db_shine = "XXX"

# e-mail address used for the DB SHINE_USER user (SHINE demo content only)
email_shine = "shine@myemailaddress.com"

# Set this flag to true when installing HANA 2.0 (or false for HANA 1.0)
useHana2 = false

# Set this flag to true when installing the XSA application server
install_xsa = false

# Set this flag to true when installing SHINE demo content (requires XSA)
install_shine = false

# Set this flag to true when installing Cockpit (requires XSA)
install_cockpit = false

# Set this flag to true when installing WebIDE (requires XSA)
install_webide = false

# Set this to be a list of the ip addresses that should be allowed by the NSG.  Empty list means that no restrictions are placed
allow_ips = []

Running the deployment

Trigger the deployment:
```
terraform apply
```
When prompted if you want to deploy the resources, answer yes. The deployment will start and take approx. 30 minutes (actual times may vary depending on region and other parameters).

Once the deployment has finished, take note of the last three lines on your console; they should look like this:

Apply complete! Resources: 19 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Outputs:

ip = Connect using tniek@xs1-db0-tniek-xs1.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com

Verifying the deployment

Connect to your newly deployed HANA instance via SSH:
Switch to the adm user:
```
sudo su -
su - xs1adm
```

Run hdbsql to execute a simple query:

hdbsql -i 01 -u SYSTEM -p Initial1 "SELECT CURRENT_TIME FROM DUMMY"

Deleting the deployment

If you don't need the deployment anymore, you can remove it just as easily. In your Azure Cloud Shell, run the following command to remove all deployed resources:
```
terraform destroy
```
