Restore SAP HANA DB Netbackup 8.2 and Studio
I'm testing an SAP HANA backup policy within Netbackup and have been reading the SAP HANA Admin guide but I'm hoping to get some clarity on some of the points in the guide. I'm cold to SAP HANA and especially configuring this within Netbackup so it seems that there are a few different possibilities to configure SAP HANA NBU policy. NBU Environment (Master/Media): Netbackup Version 8.2 with Windows Server 2016 (non clustered) Primary Disk Storage Unit: EMC Data Domain with OST Client: RHEL 7.6 with SAP HANA Version 2.0 w/Netbackup client 8.2 The NetBackup policy is configured with the Default-Application-Backup, Hana client, but left the Backup Selections blank. Leaving the Default-Application-Backup schedule as is I thought would allow the backup to perform the complete DB backup including differentials, incremental, and fulls). Leaving Backup selections blank I understood this would allow less configuration changes to the multi-tenant db script. (initially we had tested with configuring a multi-tenant db script) However, after successful backups (and this seems by design) that I am not able to 'browse' HANA backup contents using BAR and can not initiate any restores from NBU BAR. According to the documentation, the Restores have been done through STUDIO. My question is in order to perform restore from Studio (through backint) how does Studio reference the backup files that have been backed up and stored on the Data Domain? Do they need to share a mount point or is there a "link" between Studio and Client? It seems I'm missing something obvious so thanks in advance.

SAP HANA multi-tenant DB backups with NBU 8.1.2 hang after sending some data and then fail
We are attempting a Netbackup 8.1.2 backup for SAP HANA multi tenant DB. The backups for the main index DB runs for a while and start sending some data (like 10G) and then stops sending data. It waits for a while and times out which results in error 6 . We are able ot backup logs and SAP HANAS' SystemDB, but not the main SAP hana index_db. Can someone please help here. Backint log and backup log dont show much info. Veritas support keeps saying, it could be a network issue, but we have tried backing up diffrent DBs on diffrent hosts and the backups hang at some point after backing up few GBs and eventually fail. Has anyone placed similar problem. Please help.
