Migrating SAP HANA Service for SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry environment

In this lesson, we're going to show you how to perform a migration from an SAP HANA Service for SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry environment to an SAP HANA Cloud database instance using the Self-Service Migration for SAP HANA Cloud.

The image shows the landscape used for the migration.

During the migration the self-service migration tool requires some input before the actual migration run can start. The self-service migration tools requires the following input:

• Migration Name – Give a short descriptive migration project name.

  We will use: CF to HC Self-Service Migration.

• Username – This is the user name that can be used to connect to the SAP BTP Cloud Foundry environment.

  We will use: P1234567890.

• Password – This is the password for the user account P1234567890.

  We will use: Welcome1

  Note

  Please note that Welcome1 is NOT a strong password and shouldn't be used during a real migration.
• SAP BTP Region – This is the SAP BTP region of the source database.

  We will use: EU (Frankfurt).

• Cloud Foundry Space: – The self-service migration tool requires the Cloud Foundry space name where the SAP HANA Service is located.

  We will use: dev.

• Migrated Instance Name – To migrate the SAP HANA Schemas and HDI containers service the new migrated instance needs a prefix and a suffix in the name.

  As prefix we will use: demo_.

• Target Instance – This is the name of the SAP HANA Cloud target database.

  We will use: HC_CF_Target.
