Taken here

Launch hdblcmgui.
Got this error.

This error normally occurs if you dont have the correct signature file in the hdblcm installation
directory. If several SAP HANA component SAR archives have been downloaded and extracted into a
single directory, it might happen that the SIGNATURE.SMF file of the SAP HANA Database archive gets
overriden by some other component's signature. As a result, the wrong SIGNATURE.SMF gets copied
to the <sapmnt>/<SID>/hdblcm directory, hence SAP Host Agent is not able to verify and deploy the
hdblcm tool. The problem is most probably caused by improper extraction of the SAP HANA
compoennt archives before installation or upgrade.

Follow the below steps from OSS note 2074825 to resolve the issue
Go to the extracted folder and run the hdblcmgui again. The error disappears
