HANA license expired

Post by Hay Bouten »

When the SAP HANA license is expired the system will be "locked". Due to this lock-down it is not possible to work with the system, To unlock the system you need to install a valid license.

In the SAP HANA Studio this lock-down is visible by the red icon on top of the database name. If you move the mouse over the database name there is a pop-up that give more detailed about the expired license.

The SAP HANA database is in lock-down mode, even the Administration Editor view is not available. It only tells me that the license is expired.

The license can be renewed using the SAP Service MarketPlace. To renew a license you need the hardware key. The Hardware Key can be found using the SAP HANA Studio. Select Properties in the context menu from the database name.

Using the Hardware Key you can renew the SAP HANA license on the SAP Service MarketPlace. The procedure for requesting a SAP HANA license is the same as for a SAP ABAP system. When the license is generated you well receive the license file as an e-mail.

Install the renewed license in the Properties => License screen. When the license is correctly installes you get the pop-up as shown below. Sometimes the license doesn't get installed correctly. When this happens delete the old license first and install the license again from the license file. Press the Delete License Key button to delete the license.
