Correlating SAP HANA, OS logs, performance metrics, and backup history for accurate diagnosis.

Effective root cause analysis for the SAP HANA /hana/log/ file system demands a holistic view of system health. Isolated alerts, while indicative, rarely provide the full picture needed for precise diagnosis. Instead, a robust self-healing system must correlate disparate data streams to uncover the true nature of an issue. This integrated approach ensures that remediation efforts are targeted and highly effective.

SAP HANA itself offers a wealth of diagnostic information through its system views and internal logs. These resources provide granular details on log volume usage, transactional activity, and critical internal alerts related to log writes or overflows. Monitoring agents must query these views regularly, capturing real-time snapshots of the database's perception of its log health. This internal perspective forms the primary layer of our diagnostic data.
