Installing SAP Business One 10 on SLES 15 SP2

[ccsa]

Hello, experts:

I'm trying to install SAP 10 for HANA 2.0. I downloaded the guide "How to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP2 for SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA", document version 1.0.0 - 2020-11-10.

I downloaded the SLES 15 SP2 for SAP Business One .iso from a link in the document and installed as the document says. I didn't register the copy of SUSE because it never was mandatory and I don't need updates for now. Then I told to the installer I don't want to install anything more.

Then, I went to my SAP download page and got SAP HANA 2.0 Enterprise E. for B1 rev.50 (51054611), unzipped it in an empty folder (I created /usr/sap10 folder), and started the SAP installation wizard. I selected the folder where the files were and it started the installation configuration. After a while, I said I don't want to install 3rd party software, nor more SAP products (I want to install SAP 10 after HANA).

Then, a message popped up: "cannot install, HANA component folders missing on media:"

• HANA_IM_LINUX__X86_64
• HDB_CLIENT_LINUX_X86_64
• HDB_SERVER_LINUX_X86_64
• SAP_HOST_AGENT_LINUX_X64
• HDB_AFL_LINUX_X86_64
• HDB_CLIENT_LINUXINTEL

As said in the manual, none of those components are in the HANA 2.0 package, and it looks like neither in the SLES installation disk image. I can't go further so I can't install HANA nor SAP, and I tried it several times with different packages (even SAP HANA 2.0 rev.45, and others SUSE 15 image disks) but I can't install it.

Also, the suggested log folders have no files (/var/tmp) or have empty log files (/var/adm/autoinstall/logs), so no more information is avaiable

What did I miss? Do I need to purchase a SUSE license now in order to install SAP B1 10 with HANA 2.0? Is there an offline image with those mandatory packages?

Thank you.

ok, this is the link for the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications

Evaluation Copy of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications | SUSE

there is no other image, that url with slesb1hana has been linked to this one.

I am working on the default image, there is no issue in using that, you will have saptune e.g. in that regular image.
I do not recommend to use SAP HANA preconfigured setting, partitions need to be done manually as well as software selections and others
