Automated Deployment
The AWS CloudFormation template provided with this Quick Start bootstraps the AWS
infrastructure and automates the deployment of SAP Business One, version for SAP
HANA,
on the AWS Cloud from scratch. Follow the step-by-step instructions in this section to
set
up your AWS account, customize the template, and deploy the software into your
account.
What Well Cover
The procedure for deploying SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA, on AWS
consists of
the following steps. For detailed instructions, follow the links for each step.
Note You can skip steps 1, 2, and 3 if you've already set up an AWS account with
the required network infrastructure, and you have an AWS snapshot of the SAP
media.
Step 1. Prepare an AWS account
Sign up for an AWS account, if you dont already have one.
Choose the region where you want to deploy the stack on AWS.
Create a key pair in the region.
Request a limit increase for Amazon EC2 instances, if needed.
Step 2. Set up the network infrastructure
Launch the AWS CloudFormation template to create a VPC, subnets, and NAT and
RDP
instances.
Step 3. Download and stage the SAP Business One media
Connect to the RDP instance.

Download the SAP Business One media from the RDP instance.
Extract the media files and place them in the required folder structure.
Create a snapshot of the media volume.
Step 4. Install SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA
Launch the AWS CloudFormation template to install and configure SAP Business One,
version for SAP HANA, server and client components.
Step 5. Post-installation tasks
Connect to the SAP Business One client instance.
Connect to the SAP HANA database instance.
Back up the HANA database.
Install additional SAP Business One client components.
Step 1. Prepare an AWS Account
Note If you already have an AWS account, skip to step 2.
1. Create an AWS account at http://aws.amazon.com by following the on-screen
instructions. Part of the sign-up process involves receiving a phone call and entering a
PIN using the phone keypad.
2. Use the region selector in the navigation bar to choose the Amazon EC2 region where
you want to deploy SAP Business One on AWS.
Amazon EC2 locations are composed of regions and Availability Zones. Regions are
dispersed and located in separate geographic areas. This Quick Start uses the R3 or C3
instance type for the SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA, part of the deployment.
R3 instances are currently available in all AWS regions except China (Beijing) and South
America (So Paulo).

Figure 2: Choosing an Amazon EC2 Region
Tip Consider choosing a region closest to your data center or corporate network to
reduce network latency between systems running on AWS and the systems and users
on your corporate network.
3. Create a key pair in your preferred region. To do this, in the navigation pane of the
Amazon EC2 console, choose Key Pairs, Create Key Pair, type a name, and then
choose Create.
Important This folder structure is critical. The SAP Business One media has to be
placed in the appropriate folder in order for the AWS CloudFormation template to
complete the deployment successfully.

on x64 64bit operating system. Save the downloaded SAPCAR executable in the
D:\B1HANA_MEDIA folder.
Tip To extract the multi-part TAR files in Windows, you can download and install
the open source TAR program for Windows, and then use this syntax:
TAR.EXE xvM --file=tar-file1 --file=tar-file2
where tar-file1 is the TAR file name for Part 1, and tar-file2 is the TAR file name for
Part 2. When the multi-part TAR file is extracted, it creates a SAR file that you will
need to extract again with the SAPCAR tool.
Tip To extract SAR files by using SAPCAR, use this syntax:
SAPCAR xvf sar-file
where sar-file is the SAR file name.
