hello gurus,
we are planning to migrate the HANA DB from On-prem to Azure .
how ever on Azure we are going to choose RHEL 7.
Source HANA is having the OS as SUSE 11.
please confirm the correct method for the same . so that we should plan accordingly.
Backup restore or export import.
Thanks
Based on the requirement and time we have we can opt the below approaches
If we have less downtime we can go with classical migration
If we have to improve performance and to reduce migration time we can go with export and import method
If we have to reduce manual efforts we can go with DMO method
Please let me know if you want to elaborate more on these methods

There are different ways of performing the migration, depending on your current configuration. If the database is small and you are not bothered about the system downtime you can use the backup of the database and restore it to the target system.
In case you would like to optimize the migration or you'd like to have a bigger influence on the execution, then you can use the Export / Import.
Finally, you can check out my blog post about migration to Azure and see how to use DMO to perform the migration:

hello Bartosz,
there is no netweaver system upon HANA, it is just a native HANA DB , which is used by BODS and BOBJ for datawarehouse purposes / reporting purposes..
we have a 1 complete day of approved downtime.
can we use the export/import for only HANA DB migration ??? or for OS migration is Backup restore is still approved by SAP?
please help us to take a decision.
Thanks
You don't really change the operating system - it is still Linux, so I don't expect any problems. As long as one day of downtime is enough to perform the backup and restore I would go for it. That's the easiest way.
