Chapter 3. Recreating the fapolicyd trust files when updating SAP HANA

Prerequisites

  • The fapolicyd package is installed on your system.
  • You have verified that there are no new executables in the SAP HANA software directories, so you do not accidentally add software from unknown sources. For more information, refer to Marking the SAP HANA files as trusted.

Procedure

  1. Stop fapolicyd before performing the SAP HANA software update: 

    # systemctl stop fapolicyd
  2. Create a backup of the existing fapolicyd trust files /etc/fapolicyd/trust.d/hana and /etc/fapolicyd/trust.d/usr_sap, and then remove these files.
  3. Perform the SAP HANA software update.
  4. Repeat procedure section’s step 2 of Marking the SAP HANA files as trusted, to recreate the fapolicyd trust files for SAP HANA.

  5. Start fapolicyd: 

    # systemctl start fapolicyd
