Did you listen to SAP Updates 2017!! 

You can manage SAP HANA 1.0 SPS 12 databases and SAP HANA 2.0 (or later) databases with SAP HANA
2.0 cockpit and SAP HANA cockpit is a comprehensive tool that unifies individual, multiple, and tenant
database management. It replaces both the SAP DB Control Center and the SAP HANA cockpit that were
available with SAP HANA 1.0 cockpit.

SAP HANA 2.0 cockpit includes all the features of SAP HANA 1.0 cockpit. In addition, SAP HANA 2.0
cockpit allows you to manage and monitor multiple HANA systems from a single location.
SAP HANA 2.0 cockpit is a full-featured administration tool, there are still features of SAP HANA
Studio Administration perspective that are not available from SAP HANA 2.0 cockpit.

The cockpit runs on a separate system ‘powered by’ HANA express and XS advanced with cockpit
services for landscape and database administration (compare system parameter configurations), a
cockpit manager to add HANA systems as resources, and a cockpit view for system administration.

Tech Byte - Just like with HANA 1.0 cockpit and HANA studio, most of the activity uses a SQL client
connection with named database user. For offline activity, like starting a stopped database, loading
trace files from the file system or restoring a database, the host agent is used. This integrates both the
existing HANA platform lifecycle management tool (hdblcm) and the HANA cockpit for offline
administration tool, which have not changed (much).

SAP HANA 2.0 cockpit is installed as a single stack, meaning that you must not separately install XSA or
HXE. The SAP HANA 2.0 cockpit installation program takes care of installing and configuring all
components for you
