Usage

1. If you haven't already done so, please make sure you prepare your Azure Cloud Shell.

2. Next, download the required SAP packages and make them accessible.

(Note: Please review the list of SAP downloads; depending on which features and applications you would like to include in your HANA installation, you may need additional packages.)

3. In your Azure Cloud Shell, change into the directory for the HANA single-node scenario:

   cd sap-hana/deploy/vm/modules/single_node_hana/
   

4. Create a terraform.tfvars file for your deployment. You can use the provided Boilerplate template for single-node scenarios as a starting point and adjust the variables according to your requirements.

(Note: You need to rename the boilerplate template from terraform.tfvars.template to terraform.tfvars before you can use it.)

5. Now, run the deployment of your HANA single-node instance. You can verify the installation afterwards.

6. Should you wish to delete your HANA single-node instance at a later point, you can simply follow the general instructions on the overview page.
