You have an on-premises SAP landscape that is hosted on VMware vSphere and contains 50 virtual machines.

You need to perform a lift-and-shift migration to Azure by using Azure Migrate. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

What should you deploy first?

  1. an Azure Backup server
  2. an Azure VPN gateway
  3. an Azure Migrate configuration server
  4. an Azure Migrate process server

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Prepare a machine for the replication appliance
The Migration and modernization tool uses a replication appliance to replicate machines to Azure. The replication appliance runs the following components.
Configuration server: The configuration server coordinates communications between on-premises and Azure, and manages data replication.
Process server: The process server acts as a replication gateway. It receives replication data; optimizes it with caching, compression, and encryption, and sends it to a cache storage account in Azure.
Note: Set up the replication appliance (see step 10 below).
The first step of migration is to set up the replication appliance. To set up the appliance for physical server migration, you download the installer file for the appliance, and then run it on the machine you prepared. After installing the appliance, you register it with the Migration and modernization tool.
1. Download the replication appliance installer
2. In Discover machines > Are your machines virtualized?, select Not virtualized/Other.
3. In Target region, select the Azure region to which you want to migrate the machines.
4. Select Confirm that the target region for migration is region-name.
5. Click Create resources. This creates an Azure Site Recovery vault in the background.
6. In Do you want to install a new replication appliance?, select Install a replication appliance.
7. In Download and install the replication appliance software, download the appliance installer, and the registration key.
8. Copy the appliance setup file and key file to the Windows Server 2016 machine you created for the appliance.
9. After the installation completes, the Appliance configuration wizard will be launched automatically (You can also launch the wizard manually by using the cspsconfigtool shortcut that is created on the desktop of the appliance).
10. After the appliance has restarted after setup, in Discover machines, select the new appliance in Select Configuration Server, and click Finalize registration. Finalize registration performs a couple of final tasks to prepare the replication appliance.



You plan to deploy an SAP production landscape on Azure.

You need to estimate how many SAP operations will be processed by the landscape per hour. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

What should you use?

  1. SAP Quick Sizer
  2. SAP HANA hardware and cloud measurement tools
  3. SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit
  4. SAP GUI

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Using the SAP Quick Sizer
The SAP Quick Sizer is a web-based tool that is provided by SAP; it is available to all customers and business partners of SAP. Sizing information is input directly into the tool. The tool sizes SAP HANA or SAP NetWeaver servers.
Note: Understanding SAP sizing
The SAP sizing methodology for SAP HANA or SAP NetWeaver technical applications is based on SAP benchmarks, such as information from SAP and actual customer experiences.
The base SAP workload unit is an SAP Application Performance Standard (SAPS).
The SAPS is a definition of throughput that is coined by SAP capacity planning and performance testing personnel. For example, 100 SAPS is defined as 2,000 fully business processed order-line items per hour in the standard SAP Sales and Distribution (SAP SD) application benchmark.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Box 1: Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Join a domain (Windows only)
If your Azure deployment is connected to an on-premises Active Directory or DNS instance via an Azure site-to- site VPN connection or ExpressRoute (this is called cross-premises in Azure Virtual Machines planning and implementation for SAP NetWeaver), it is expected that the VM is joining an on-premises domain.

Box 2: Microsoft Entra ID
Microsoft Entra ID Single sign-on (SSO) integration with SAP NetWeaver When you integrate SAP NetWeaver with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to SAP NetWeaver. Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to SAP NetWeaver with their Microsoft Entra accounts.
Manage your accounts in one central location.

Note: Enable single sign-on for an enterprise application

Microsoft Entra ID has a gallery that contains thousands of pre-integrated applications that use SSO.

You have an on-premises SAP Enterprise Central Component (ECC) landscape that is hosted on servers that run Windows Server and uses an Oracle database.

You need to migrate the landscape to SAP S/4HANA on Azure virtual machines. The solution must minimize downtime.

What should you use?

  1. Azure Site Recovery
  2. Software Update Manager (SUM)
  3. Software Provisioning Manager (SWPM)
  4. Azure Migrate

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Migration from SAP ERP On-Premise to SAP S/4HANA on Azure
Migration Procedure using DMO
The conversion of On-Premise SAP ERP6.0 into SAP S/4 HANA On Azure uses the one-step approach of using Database Migration Option (DMO) of SAP's Software Update Manager (SUM) tool.



Fig. 1 One-step conversion from SAP ERP to SAP S/4 HANA using DMO to Azure Benefits of using DMO approach compared to the classical export/import method are:
No export of the source database to the file system
No transport of source database export files to Azure
SAP S/4 HANA conversion `On-the-fly' over the WAN MPLS connection using the DMO of Software Update
Manager
Ability to leverage the flexibility of Azure by running the conversion on a very powerful system Reduced business downtime by leveraging the above benefits
Prerequisites / System Requirement
To use the DMO approach to migrate to Azure, your on-premise SAP ERP system should fulfil following requirements
SAP ERP system running on a non-HANA database (like Oracle/DB2) It should be Unicode system
It should be running on SAP Netweaver Application server for ABAP component only (No Dual stack system supported)



DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have a bill of materials (BOM) that describes SAP deployments.

You plan to automate the implementation of an SAP S4/HANA deployment to Azure by using the SAP deployment automation framework on Azure.

You need to generate the SAP application templates for the planned implementation and update the BOM.

In which order should you perform the actions? To answer, move all actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Select and Place:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Step 1: Generate an ABAP Central Services (ASCS) parameter file Generate SAP Application templates for automation
The SAP on Azure Deployment Automation Framework uses a Bill of Materials (BOM) to define the SAP Application. Before you can deploy a system using a custom BOM, you need to also create the templates for the ini-files used in the unattended SAP installation.

Generate ASCS parameter file

Step 2: Install the SAP HANA and SAP Central Services (CSC) instances

Step 3: Load the database content

Load database content

Make sure the following settings are in place on the VM before you begin:

Install and configure your HANA and SCS instances. These instances must be online before you complete the database content load. (Step 2)

The <sid>adm user you created when you generated the unattended installation file for ASCS must be a member of the sapinst group.

The user identifier for <sid>adm must match the value of hdblcm. This example uses 2000.

The SWPM needs access to /sapmnt/<SID>/global/. To configure permissions, run chown <sid>adm:sapsys / sapmnt/<SID>/global.

Step 4: Generate and combine the parameter files of the application servers Generate database load template

Generate PAS parameter file
Generate an unattended installation parameter file for use with PAS.

Generate additional application servers parameter file
Generate an unattended installation parameter file for use with AAS.

Combine parameter files
You can combine your parameter files, which all end with inifile.params, into one file for the installation process.

Create combination file
To create a file that combines all your parameters:

1. If you haven't already, download each parameter file you created (ASCS, PAS, and AAS). You need these files on the computer or VM from which you're working.

2. Make a backup of each parameter file.

3. Create a new combination file. Name this file for the SAP product that you're using. For example, S4HANA_2020_ISS_v001.inifile.params.

4. Open the ASCS parameter file (scs.inifile.params) in an editor.

5. Copy the header of the ASCS parameter file into the combination file. For example:

######################################################################################### ################################
# #
# Installation service 'SAP S/4HANA Server 2020 > SAP HANA Database > Installation #
# > Application Server ABAP > Distributed System > ASCS Instance', product id 'NW_ABAP_ASCS:S4HANA2020.CORE.HDB.ABAP' #
# #
######################################################################################### #########

6. For each inifile.params file you have, copy the product identifier line from the header. Then, copy the product identifiers into the header of your combination.

Step 5: Add the templates to the BOM.
7. Open your bom.yml file in an editor.

8. Copy the sections for product_ids into your combination file.

9. For each inifile.params file you have, copy the product identifier from the header into the appropriate part of product_ids. For example, copy your ASCS to scs:

product_ids:
scs: "NW_ABAP_ASCS:S4HANA2020.CORE.HDB.ABAP"
db: ""
pas: ""
aas: ""
web: ""

10. Remove any lines that you commented out or left blank.

11. Save your combination file.
