You have an Azure subscription. You plan to deploy a SAP NetWeaver landscape that will use SQL Server on Azure virtual machines. The solution must meet the following requirements: * The SAP application and database tiers must reside in the same Azure zone. * The application tier in the Azure virtual machines must belong to the same Availability Set. Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.
Correct Answer:
Explanation Text Description automatically generated with medium confidence Step 1: Create a proximity placement group A proximity placement group is a logical grouping of Azure resources within the same Azure data center in order to reduce latency. Step 2: Create an Availability Set Create an availability set that references the Azure proximity group. By adding the availability sets to proximity placement groups, the network latencies are considerably reduced, thereby improving the overall performance. Step 3: Deploy SQL Server on Azure Virtual machines Step 4: Deploy the application tier in the Azure virtual machines Deploy the application layer VMs by referencing the availability set and the proximity placement group.

Question 23
You have SAP ERP on Azure. For SAP high availability, you plan to deploy ASCS/ERS instances across Azure Availability Zones and to use failover clusters. For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation Box 1: No You can't use an Azure Basic Load Balancer to create failover cluster solutions based on Windows Server Failover Clustering or Linux Pacemaker. Instead, you need to use the Azure Standard Load Balancer SKU. Box 2: Yes Azure Availability Zones is one of the high-availability features that Azure provides. Using Availability Zones improves the overall availability of SAP workloads on Azure. The SAP application layer is deployed across one Azure availability set. For high availability of SAP Central Services, you can deploy two VMs in a separate availability set. Box 3: Yes You must use Azure Managed Disks when you deploy to Azure Availability Zones.

Question 25
You plan to migrate an on-premises SAP development system to Azure. Before the migration, you need to check the usage of the source system hardware, such as CPU, memory, network, etc. Which transaction should you run from SAP GUI?
Correct Answer: D
SAP transaction OS07N (Remote Operating System Activity) is classified in the Basis Component module under application component Operating System Monitors and runs Monitoring Operating System program RSHOST1N upon execution. Incorrect Answers: A: Transaction code SM51 is to display list of active application servers that have registered in the SAP message server. B: DB01 is a transaction code used for Analyze Exclusive Lockwaits in SAP. C: Transaction code DB12 is to collects and presents information that is necessary to monitor database backups.

Litware has two main offices. The offices are located in Miami, FL, and Madrid, Spain. Existing Environment Infrastructure Litware currently uses a third-party provider to host a datacenter in Miami and a disaster recovery datacenter in Chicago, IL. The network contains an Active Directory domain named litware.com. Litware has two third-party applications hosted in Azure. Litware already implemented a site-to-site VPN connection between the on-premises network and Azure. SAP Environment Litware currently runs the following SAP products: * Enhancement Pack6 for SAP ERP Central Component 6.0 (SAP ECC 6.0) * SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) * SAP Supply Chain Management (SAP SCM) * SAP NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) * SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) * SAP Solution Manager All servers run on the Windows Server platform. All databases use Microsoft SQL Server. Currently, you have 20 production servers. You have 30 non-production servers including five testing servers, five development servers, five quality assurance (QA) servers, and 15 pre-production servers. Currently, all SAP applications are in the litware.com domain. Problem Statements The current version of SAP ECC has a transaction that, when run in batches overnight, takes eight hours to complete. You confirm that upgrading to SAP Business Suite on HANA will improve performance because of code changes and the SAP HANA database platform. Litware is dissatisfied with the performance of its current hosted infrastructure vendor. Litware experienced several hardware failures and the vendor struggled to adequately support its 24/7 business operations. Requirements Business Goals Litware identifies the following business goals: * Increase the performance of SAP ECC applications by moving to SAP HANA. All other SAP databases will remain on SQL Server. * Move away from the current infrastructure vendor to increase the stability and availability of the SAP services. * Use the new Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) in Recipe Management function. * Ensure that any migration activities can be completed within a 48-hour period during a weekend. Planned Changes Litware identifies the following planned changes: * Migrate SAP to Azure. * Upgrade and migrate SAP ECC to SAP Business Suite on HANA Enhancement Pack 8. Technical Requirements Litware identifies the following technical requirements: * Implement automated backups. * Support load testing during the migration. * Identify opportunities to reduce costs during the migration. * Continue to use the litware.com domain for all SAP landscapes. * Ensure that all SAP applications and databases are highly available. * Establish an automated monitoring solution to avoid unplanned outages. * Remove all SAP components from the on-premises network once the migration is complete. * Minimize the purchase of additional SAP licenses. SAP HANA licenses were already purchased. * Ensure that SAP can provide technical support for all the SAP landscapes deployed to Azure.
