The CPU socket assigned to the Nutanix CVM cannot be used for any HANA production workloads. Observe the CPU socket, RAM ratio, and production VMs per host limitations as per SAP note 2686722. This step is critical to ensure proper support. Contact the manufacturer for certified hardware and certified installation partners for your HANA systems. Refer to SAP’s HCI certification matrix for approved solutions. Always deploy SAP HANA on certified OEM hardware. When designing around these dependencies, do not ignore network design architecture.įor SAP HANA, sizing involves additional considerations: Transactional systems rely on low response times, while analytical systems emphasize throughput of the I/O subsystem. 
Do not overcommit RAM for any environments. Do not overcommit CPUs for production environments. Observe the design and configuration recommendations general to the Acropolis DSF while also accounting for SAP workload characteristics such as capacity, performance, and redundancy requirements. Design Nutanix clusters based on high availability and database licensing requirements. Follow SAP best practice documentation and SAP Notes for specific information about how to size and configure the virtualized environment for the chosen hypervisor (Nutanix AHV, VMware ESXi, or Microsoft Hyper-V). Use best practice guidance from Nutanix, VMware, and Microsoft to size VM configurations. Perform compute sizing using the hardware’s SAPS (SAP Standard Application Benchmarks) rating, which SAP publishes on its benchmarks page. For new and existing SAP environments, follow standard application sizing guidance from SAP (SAP account required). 
The process for sizing an SAP environment on Nutanix is straightforward and well established, and Nutanix sales teams are available to assist with selecting the optimal infrastructure for customers’ current and future needs.Īt a high level, sizing involves the following points: Whether running Nutanix AHV, VMware ESXi, or Microsoft Hyper-V, the Nutanix platform provides all the enterprise features that customers expect in terms of scalability, performance, high availability, and disaster recovery. Sizing and deploying SAP on Nutanix is simple by design and risk-free. Hi Rossana, I hope this information regarding sizing and deploying SAP on Nutanix will be useful to you.
