You will learn how to download, install, and configure the shine.tgz SAP HANA Interactive Education package.

Prerequisites

SHINE is a separate download in the Download Manager. To use SHINE, you need the Server + Applications Virtual Machine (hxexsa.ova) package. Use the Download Manager to download the SAP HANA Interactive Education package, shine.tgz.

  • Step 1

    Run the hxe_gc memory management script to free up available VM memory.

    1. In your VM, log in as hxeadm and enter:

      bash
      Copy
      cd /usr/sap/HXE/home/bin

    2. Execute:

      bash
      Copy
      hxe_gc.sh

    3. When prompted for System database user (SYSTEM) password, enter the New HANA database master password you specified during SAP HANA, express edition installation.

      The cleanup process runs. The command prompt returns when the cleanup process is finished.

  • Step 2

    In your VM, download shine.tgz using the built-in Download Manager. From the same directory where you ran hxe_gc (/usr/sap/HXE/home/bin) enter:

    bash
    Copy
    HXEDownloadManager_linux.bin linuxx86_64 vm shine.tgz
  • Step 3

    In your VM, extract shine.tgz:

    bash
    Copy
    tar -xvzf shine.tgz
  • Step 4

    As the hxeadm user, run:

    bash
    Copy
