   An update that has 7 recommended fixes can now be installed.

Description:

   This update for SAPHanaSR fixes the following issues:

   - Add systemd support for the resource agent to interact with the new SAP
     unit files for sapstartsrv. As the new version of the SAP Startup
     Framework will use systemd unit files to control the sapstartsrv process
     instead of the previous used SysV init script, the handling of
     sapstartsrv inside the resource agents is adapted to support both ways.
     (bsc#1189530, bsc#1189531)
   - The resource start and stop timeout is now configurable by increasing
     the timeout for the action 'start' and/or 'stop'. 95% of this action
     timeouts will be used to calculate the new resource start and stop
     timeout for the 'WaitforStarted' and 'WaitforStopped' functions. If the
     new, calculated timeout value is less than '3600', it will be set to
     '3600', so that we do not decrease this timeout by accident.
     (bsc#1182545)
   - Change promotion scoring during maintenance procedure to prevent that
     both sides have an equal promotion scoring after refresh which might
     result in a critical promotion of the secondary. (bsc#1174557)
   - Update of man page SAPHanaSR.py.7 - correct the supported HANA version
     (bsc#1182201)
   - If the $hdbState command fails to retrieve the current state of the
     System Replication, the resource agent now uses the
     system_replication/actual_mode attribute (if available) from the
     global.ini file as a fallback. This should prevent some confusing and
     misleading log messages during a takeover and solves the problem of a
     not working takeover back (after a successful first takeover)
     (bsc#1181765)
   - Add dedicated logging of HANA_CALL problems. It is now possible to
     identify if the called `hana` command or the needed `su` command throws
     the error, and for further hints it logs the stderr output. Additionally
     it is possible to get regular log messages for the used commands, their
     return code and their stderr
     output by enabling the 'debug' mode of the resource agents (bsc#1182774)
