Installing the SAP HANA Driver Files

  1. Download and unzip the contents of the IDM_SAPHanaDriver_1.0.0.zip file to a temporary location on your computer.

  2. To install the driver files as a root user:

    1. Login as root on the server where you want apply the driver jar file.

    2. Navigate to the extracted IDM_SAPHanaDriver_1.0.0.zip directory and perform one of the following actions for your platform:

      • For Linux: Install the new netiq-DXMLSAPHana-1.0.0.0000-1.noarch.rpm in your driver installation directory by running the following command in a terminal window:

        • If you are installing the binary, run the command: rpm -Ivh (binaries-path)/netiq-DXMLSAPHana-1.0.0.0000-1.noarch.rpm


      • For Windows: Copy the saphanashim.jar file to your driver installation folder. For example, \NetIQ\IdentityManager\NDS (local installation) or \Novell\RemoteLoader\64bit (remote installation).


  3. (Conditional) To install the driver files as a non-root user:

    1. Verify that /rpm directory exists and contains _db.* file.

      2. The _db.* file is created during a non-root installation of the Identity Manager engine. The absence of this file might indicate that the Identity Manager is not installed properly. You must reinstall the Identity Manager to correctly place the file in the directory.

    2. To set the root directory to the location of non-root Identity Vault, enter the command ROOTDIR=non-root eDirectory location in the command prompt.

      This will set the environmental variables to the directory where Identity Vault is installed as a non-root user.

    3. To install the SAP HANA driver files, enter the following command:

      For example, to install the SAP HANA driver RPM, use this command:

      rpm --dbpath $ROOTDIR/rpm -Ivh --relocate=/usr=$ROOTDIR/opt/novell/eDirectory --relocate=/etc=$ROOTDIR/etc --relocate=/opt/novell/eDirectory=$ROOTDIR/opt/novell/eDirectory --relocate=/opt/novell/dirxml=$ROOTDIR/opt/novell/dirxml --relocate=/var=$ROOTDIR/var --badreloc --nodeps --replacefiles /home/user/netiq-DXMLSAPHana-1.0.0.0000-1.noarch.rpm

      Note: In the above command /opt/novell/eDirectory is the location where non-root Identity Vault is installed, and /home/user/ is the home directory of the non-root user.

  4. (Conditional) If the driver is running locally, start the Identity Vault and the driver instance.

  5. (Conditional) If the driver is running with a Remote Loader instance, start the Remote Loader instance and the driver instance.

Note: It is mandatory
