If you run the side-by-side installation, data must be replicated from the back ends into the SAP HANA database. SAP recommends to use the SAP Landscape Transformation Replication Server for this.
This should be completed prior to the installation of SAP HANA Live. Note that you must plan some time for the installation process.
Install SAP Landscape Transformation Replication Server
Install the SAP Landscape Transformation Replication Server as described in the corresponding installation guide and configure the connection from the SAP Business Suite source system to the target SAP HANA database. If you decide to install SAP Landscape Transformation Replication Server on a separate system, additional hardware is required.
For the installation process, see SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com/hana_appliance:
Install Data Migration Server (DMIS) Add-On on Back End
For the replication, the DMIS add-on is required in the back end for the communication between the back end and SAP Landscape Transformation Replication Server.
Plan the DMIS installation in your back ends carefully.
