HANA records the details of the backup process in a log file (not to be confused with the transaction log). The log of the backup is a single file which contains details of all the data and database log backups in the system. This file is contained in the trace-drectory
of the configured master host (core HANA host).
You can open the log file to view the progress of the backup. First, navigate to the “Backup Console” of Database you want to view backup information of (I.e. Tenant or System). We will be navigating to our Tenant’s Backup Console for this tutorial.
Select the “Open Log File” icon to access this log file.
Once you click this, you can view the log and data backups in the files.
