Lab - Implement Linux clustering for SAP on Azure Virtual Machines

  • 90 minutes

All tasks in this lab are performed from the Azure portal (including the Bash Cloud Shell session).

Note

When not using Cloud Shell, the lab virtual machine must have Azure CLI installed and include an SSH client, such as PuTTY.

Lab files: none

Scenario

In preparation for deployment of SAP HANA on Azure, Adatum Corporation wants to explore implementing clustering on Azure Virtual Machines running the SUSE distribution of Linux.
