    Note: The backup paths are /hana/backup/data and /hana/backup/log.

    Click the save icon in the upper right corner to save the configuration.

  4. In the System area on the left, right-click the database node and choose Backup and Recovery > Back Up System Database... to back up the system database.

  6. In the System area on the left, right-click the database node and choose Backup and Recovery > Back Up Tenant Database... to back up the tenant database.

  7. Select the tenant database and click Next.
