sapHanaSettings Entity
Use the sapHanaSettings entity to configure SAML delegation for SAP HANA.
Review Configure SAP HANA SSO before you continue.
Use the configuration file template below to create a json file. After you have filled in the options with the appropriate values, pass the json file and apply settings with the following commands:
tsm settings import -f path-to-file.json
tsm pending-changes apply
If the pending changes require a server restart, the pending-changes apply
command will display a prompt to let you know a restart will occur. This prompt displays even if the server is stopped, but in that case, there is no restart. You can suppress the prompt using the --ignore-prompt
option, but this does not change the restart behaviour. If the changes do not require a restart, the changes are applied without a prompt. For more information, see tsm pending-changes apply.
