You will learn

You will learn how to download the binary image of SAP HANA 2.0, express edition, plus the Applications package, and optional additional components.

Prerequisites

Close the Download Manager if it is running in GUI mode.

Note:
The Download Manager for Windows (HXEDownloadManager_win.exe) runs in asynchronous mode, and console mode is not available. If you are a Windows user, download the platform-independent Download Manager (HXEDownloadManager.jar) to use console mode.

  • Step 1

    Open a command prompt at the location where you saved the Download Manager file (HXEDownloadManager.jar or HXEDownloadManager_linux.bin).

    Note:
    If you’ve already installed SAP HANA express edition, you can run the built-in download manager from any directory as the adm user.

  • Step 2

    Linux x86_64 Download Manager example:

    bash
    Copy
    HXEDownloadManager_linux.bin -h

    Platform-independent Download Manager example:

    bash
    Copy
    java -jar HXEDownloadManager.jar -h

    Note:
    You must include an argument with each command. If you call the Download Manager without an argument, it opens in GUI mode.

  • Step 3

    Command syntax is:

    bash
    Copy
    HXEDownloadManager [( [-h|-X] | [-d <save_directory>] [--ph <proxy_host>] [--pp <proxy_port>] <platform> <image> <file>... )]

    Command arguments are:
