PAS-C01 Migration Practice Question
A company is migrating an SAP NetWeaver system from on-premises to AWS. They plan to use the same SAP SID and keep the same hostname. The migration will be performed using SAP Software Provisioning Manager (SWPM) with the option 'System Rename' set to 'No'. What must be configured in the AWS environment to ensure the system functions correctly?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Ensure the same private IP address is assigned to the Amazon EC2 instance
The system uses the same hostname and SAP SID. To avoid reconfiguration, the Amazon EC2 instance must have the same private IP address as the on-premises hostname resolves to, or the hostname must be resolvable via DNS or /etc/hosts. Option B is incorrect because updating DNS records to point to a new public IP is unnecessary when the same private IP is used. Option C is incorrect because the same SAP SID is allowed and does not need to be changed. Option D is incorrect because assigning a different private IP would require updating hostname resolution, which defeats the purpose of keeping the same hostname.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Ensure the same private IP address is assigned to the Amazon EC2 instance
Why this is correct
Matching IP avoids reconfiguration of application and database connections.
- ✗
Update the DNS records to point to the new public IP
Why it's wrong here
The system uses hostname resolution internally; public IP not relevant.
- ✗
Change the SAP SID to a new value
Why it's wrong here
SID remains the same; no need to change.
- ✗
Assign a different private IP address to avoid conflicts
Why it's wrong here
No conflict with on-premises after migration; same IP simplifies configuration.
