Exhibit

Refer to the exhibit.

Exhibit:
[ec2-user@ip-10-0-1-10 ~]$ df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs        16G     0   16G   0% /dev
tmpfs           16G     0   16G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/xvda1       30G   20G   10G  67% /
/dev/xvdf       500G  200G  300G  40% /hana/data
/dev/xvdg       100G   80G   20G  80% /hana/log

Refer to the exhibit. An SAP system administrator checks disk usage on an SAP HANA instance. The /hana/log volume is at 80% usage. What is the recommended course of action to prevent issues?

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

Increase the size of the EBS volume for /hana/log and extend the filesystem.

SAP HANA requires that the log volume have sufficient free space to avoid transaction log overflow. The best practice is to increase the size of the log volume. Deleting logs manually is risky, and moving data volumes is not appropriate. The recommended action is to increase the EBS volume size and extend the filesystem.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Take a snapshot of the instance and terminate it.

    Why it's wrong here

    Terminating the instance is not a solution for disk usage.

  • Increase the size of the EBS volume for /hana/log and extend the filesystem.

    Why this is correct

    Increasing volume size provides more space for log files.

  • Delete old backup files from /hana/log.

    Why it's wrong here

    Backups are not stored in /hana/log; this is for redo logs.

  • Move some data from /hana/log to /hana/data.

    Why it's wrong here

    Data and log files are separate and should not be moved.
