TDP for implementing SAP Hana on Suse 12 operating system

We actually are in a critical situation, all new Lenovo Hardware can not be installed with SUSE 11, we urgently need TDP for Sap Hana with support for SUSE 12, so that we can continue with the implementation and give service to the customers according to the actual contracts. Currently we have a customer with the new Lenovo Solution without support because of this problem. Backups are part of the contract. The client needs a solution as soon as posible so that they can work with TSM, if we do not have an answer, the client is requesting as to install a solution from other competitor. The customer can not have active infrastructure part of their Core Business with out backups. I really appreciate you help with this issue, and if you can talk with the development team to get the required support for this scenario.
