This documentation is applicable to Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V 3.0
and SQL 2012. Hyper-V 2.0 is not covered
Proposed documentation is targeted to small and medium SAP on
SQL Server customers only. Very large complex landscapes tend to be
“custom” solutions
H/W platform documented is 2 socket SandyBridge or IvyBridge
ranging from 8-15 core.
Documentation provides customers a “cookbook” to deploy SAP on
Win/SQL on Hyper-V 3.0

Simple implementation suitable for smaller customers or Dev/QAS
All components are consolidated as 2 tier DB/CI on a single Hyper-V
cluster comprised of n nodes.

All components are consolidated as 2 tier DB/CI on a non-production
and separate Production Hyper-V cluster comprised of n nodes.

6. VIRTUAL MACHINE CONFIGURATION
1.
2.

4.
5.
Use only the following 4 predefined virtual machine sizes
SAP application servers should only use virtual machine sizes 1 + 2
SQL Server can run on all 4 VM sizes
Use the Virtual Machine landscape calculator Excel spreadsheet to
design the VMs and landscape
Review SAP on Microsoft Private Cloud chapter 9

APPENDIX III: SAP ON SQL SERVER SECURITY

5.
The patching requirement for SAP on SQL is the same or less than that
of UNIX/Oracle
A maximum of 2 patching cycles per 12 month period is the target
The total downtime per SAP system per year due to schedule patching
is 10 minutes
The total man-hours spent on patching the entire infrastructure is ~10
hours per year
Please review the “Securing SAP on SQL 2012” Whitepaper
