Set up and begin using a basic replication system in which the SAP HANA® database is the replicate.
If your primary and replicate databases are not already participating in replication using SAP® Replication Server®, use SAP Replication Management Agent Designer to setup the replication environment. See Replication Management Agent Configuration and Users Guide.
You can find additional information about the SAP HANA database, including HANA Studio at http://help.sap.com/hana_platform.
While setting up the basic replication system, you may need to refer to additional documents, which are a part of the SAP® Replication Server® documentation set available at http://infocenter.sybase.com.
