Those marked with an * asterisk, are not listed on the SAP HANA Hardware Directory by SAP but are certified for running SAP HANA production systems. The directory lists the smallest, median and largest within each profile family. This action has been taken by SAP to avoid too many records, as the scalability of IBM POWER hardware enables significantly more granular sizing. See SAP Note 2947579 - SAP HANA on {{site.data.keyword.IBM_notm}} Power Systems Virtual Servers{: external} for additional detail. {: note}

Understanding IBM Power Virtual Server profile names

{: #hana-iaas-power-vs-names}

The IBM Power Virtual Server for SAP HANA have profile names that are contextual and sequential. There are multiple families of profiles for SAP HANA, each with associated with the required Service Level Agreements (SLAs):

  • np1 = Non-product development for testing or development use only. Not intended for production deployments; not supported or certified by SAP production.
  • umh1 = Ultra Memory HANA for OLTP that use 1:240 as the cpu:memory ratio
  • mh1 = High Memory for OLAP that use 1:180 as the cpu:memory ratio
  • bh1 = Balanced for OLAP that use 1:100 as the cpu:memory ratio
  • ch1 = Compute Intensive for OLAP that use 1:50 as the cpu:memory ratio

The Virtual Server profile names are contextual and sequential, the following table uses an SAP HANA certified server as an example:

Profile name Naming convention component What it means
umh1-16x3840 umh1 Ultra Memory SAP HANA for OLTP (higher on the CPU to Memory ratio), 1:240 ratio
