What is the process for installing SAP software?

Administering an Oracle/SAP system, and maximizing the performance of its database, is a formidable job. You need to fully understand how both the SAP and Oracle systems work in isolation, and you need to know how they work together. In subsequent chapters of this book, I'll describe the specifics of that interaction. You'll learn how to use the special Oracle/SAP utilities, how to deal with the limitations of conventional Oracle functions, and how to place and reorganize files. Furthermore, after reading this book, you'll know more about monitoring databases during operation, tuning them, running backup and recovery, and performing special operations for systems that use parallel technologies or that support unusually large databases.This chapter presents the fundamentals of the SAP architecture and describes how Oracle fits into the SAP runtime system. It also explains fundamental Oracle/SAP concepts -- the client/server model, special Oracle/SAP naming conventions, administrator roles, and basic administrative operations. First, though, let's take a step back and look at what SAP is.Introduction to SAPThe SAP system is a collection of software that performs standard business functions for corporations. The system has become very popular because it provides a complete solution to standard business requirements such as manufacturing, accounting, financial management, and human resources. It incorporates the concepts of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and business process reengineering (BPR) into an integrated solution for business applications. SAP is a product developed and marketed by the German company SAP AG. SAP is a German acronym for "Systemanalyse und Programmentwicklung," which can be loosely translated into "Systems and Application Products." Founded in 1972 by IBM application developers, SAP AG originally developed application products for the European marketplace. For nearly two decades, the company grew slowly. Early versions of its software were mainframe-based and appealed particularly to very large European corporations. Within the United States, sales were mainly to the Fortune 500.SAP's R/3 SystemDuring the 1990s, companies of all sizes began to embrace the concept of ERP systems and to gravitate toward prewritten business applications. With the introduction of its client/server SAP R/3 system in 1992, SAP AG, which already had a sizeable lead in the ERP market, unveiled a system that was attractive to medium- and small-sized companies as well as to the large companies already using SAP software. The SAP R/3 system runs on virtually any hardware/software platform and can use many different database management systems. One SAP system might be based on an IBM AS/400 running OS/400 using DB2; another might be based on a Sun Solaris (a dialect of Unix) using the Oracle RDBMS; still another might be based on an IBM PC running Windows NT using SQL Server. While SAP can be run with many different database products, nearly 85% of SAP customers now choose Oracle because of its dominance in the database marketplace. SAP software has become very popular in the U.S., and the company is now the world's leading application package vendor. SAP competes directly with Oracle Applications products and PeopleSoft products in the ERP marketplace.The SAP R/3 code is written in an interpretive language called ABAP. (ABAP is a German acronym that, loosely translated, means "Advanced Business Application Programming.") ABAP is very similar to COBOL in its syntax. Use of the ABAP language allows SAP customers to extend the functionality of the base product, as described in the next section.SAP Application ProductsThe SAP R/3 application offers end users the ability to run their entire business from a single application vendor. Some SAP customers choose to run their entire enterprise from SAP, while others run SAP only for specific business processes, such as manufacturing or finance. SAP is designed to allow customers to choose their own set of business functions, and it is sold in many configurations--both as specific business functions and as enterprise-wide solutions.An SAP customer can choose whatever applications meet his site's specific business requirements. In addition, the customer is free to customize his SAP installation, adding new database entities as well as new functionality. For example, a company may use an inventory method that is nonstandard but essential to the company's efficiency; the basic SAP functionality can be modified to accommodate the specific requirements of that inventory method. The result of all of this flexibility is that virtually every SAP installation has its own specific configuration and set of functions. However, there are costs associated with customizing SAP. An organization that makes thousands of customizations to its SAP application may find itself spending millions of dollars to upgrade SAP: when SAP is upgraded, every customization must be identified in the ABAP code, and these changes must be reapplied to the upgraded SAP software, increasing the cost of the upgrade.SAP products are distributed as applications with functional modules inside each application. Applications are generally focused on particular business functions. The modules within each application perform specific business tasks such as capital investment management, personnel administration, and quality management. The major applications are financials, human resources, and logistics, described briefly in the following sections.In addition to basic business functions, SAP also offers products in the following areas (see http://www.sap.com/products/ for details):SAP Business Intelligence initiativeSAP Supply Chain Management initiativeSAP Customer Relationship Management initiativeSAP Electronic CommerceSAP Human ResourcesSAP TreasurySAP Real EstateSAP Environment, Health, & SafetyWhen an SAP application is purchased with Oracle, each of the modules is delivered with a complete Oracle schema consisting of thousands of tables and indexes. Because the end user may purchase one or more components of SAP, SAP delivers the definition for many more Oracle tables and indexes than will be used by the running application. It is not uncommon to see an SAP application where thousands of tables and indexes are allocated but never used by SAP.SAP has also branched out from traditional online transaction processing (OLTP) products into data warehousing with its Business Information Warehouse (BIW) and Supply Chain Optimization, Planning, and Execution (SCOPE) products.Financials applicationsThe SAP Financials applications contain all of the functionality needed for enterprise-wide financial management. The modules within the Financials applications include the following:Financial Accounting (FI)Provides a complete financial accounting solution, including income statements, balance sheets, journals, ledgers, and all areas of financial accounting.Enterprise Controlling (EC)Assists in controller tasks.Capital Investment Management (IM)Assists finance organizations in their capital investments and tracking.Controlling (CO)Assists the controller organization.Treasury (TR)Assists with transactions related to the U.S. Treasury.Human Resources applicationsThe SAP Human Resources (HR) applications are designed to provide a fully functioning HR system. They include two primary modules:Personnel Administration (PA)Assists with all areas of personnel administration, including applicant tracking and personnel history.Personnel Development (PD)Assists with training and educational status of employees.These systems handle all of the mundane HR tasks, such as personnel and payroll, and also a number of more esoteric HR functions, such as seminar and convention management.Logistics applicationsThe SAP Logistics applications include SAP's most popular modules. Logistics was the first area of entry for SAP. This includes virtually every area of manufacturing, from the initial acquisition of raw materials to the delivery of finished goods. The modules in this area include the following products:Materials Management (MM)Manages raw materials, inventory, and all aspects of goods manufacturing.Production Planning (PP)Offers sophisticated tools for planning large production environments.General Logistics (LO)Manages logistics for companies that require large-scale deployment of goods and resources.Sales and Distribution (SD)Manages the inventory and distribution of finished goods.Plant Maintenance (PM)Manages the resources required for large manufacturing plants.Quality Management (QM)Captures and maintains quality control for manufacturing environments.Project System (PS)Assists with the scheduling of project tasks and interdependencies between tasks.The SAP R/3 System ArchitectureAll SAP R/3 applications are delivered in a three-tier client/server architecture, shown in Figure 1-1.Figure 1-1.The SAP three-tier client/server architectureFigure 1-2.The SAP Dialog instance configurationThe WP is the task that is charged with executing the application's tasks. As such, a WP consists of an ABAP language interpreter and processor, a task handler, and a means of connecting to the Oracle database. SAP defines several types of work processes, as follows:Dialog (DIA)Executes interactive dialogsBatch (BTC)Executes background tasksUpdate (UPD)Manages database updatesEnqueue (ENQ)Manages resource locksSpool (SPO)Manages data formatting and printingThe WPs can be viewed from a variety of places via SAPGUI, the SAP management tool. In SAPGUI, each screen has a name, and the SAPGUI screen called SM50 shows the currently executing WPs on a dialog instance (see Figure 1-3). SAPGUI has more than 100 screens, but in this book I'll focus on the major database screens. See Chapter 2, Oracle/SAP Utilities, for a discussion of SAPGUI and SAPDBA, the primary SAP utilities.Figure 1-3.SAPGUI transaction SM50 displaying SAP work processesThe SAP system administrator, commonly called the BASIS administrator, controls the number of WPs that are defined to each application server. (See the "Oracle/SAP Administrators and Tasks" section later in this chapter.) In addition, the BASIS administrator can define "op modes" that control the number and type of WPs for each application server. For example, the BASIS administrator might define a day mode consisting of more dialog WPs for interactive sessions, and a night mode consisting of more batch WPs for the evening batch processes. These op modes are automatically switched by SAP according to the timetable specified by the BASIS administrator.Oracle/SAP Naming ConventionsIn order to maintain control over a vast set of applications, SAP has devised a convention for naming common components. These conventions are more than suggestions; in many cases, deviation from the naming conventions may cause some management components of SAP (e.g., SAPDBA) to function improperly. Thus, it's very important that all SAP systems follow these naming conventions. One firm rule relates to the Oracle table and index names. Obviously, the SAP table structures and table names cannot be changed without changing the ABAP programs that access these tables, and SAP strongly urges customers not to alter the Oracle entities without the express consent of SAP AG. However, the Oracle administrator does have control over the naming of some Oracle entities (tablespaces and datafiles) and their placement within the filesystems and disk devices. The main areas of concern for the Oracle administrator are the Oracle SID name, the name and location of the Oracle initialization file, and the names of the Oracle tablespaces and datafiles; these objects are described in the following sections.The Oracle SID in SAPSAP mandates that the Oracle SID (System IDentifier), specified in Unix and some other operating systems as ORACLE_SID, always begin with an uppercase "SA," followed by a single alphanumeric digit or a single uppercase alphabetic character. Thus, the SID may have the values SA0-SA9 or SAA-SAZ. These are the only allowable choices for Oracle database SIDs. Throughout this book, I've used the notation sapsid to refer to the Oracle SID established for your own database. The Oracle Initialization File (INIT.ORA) in SAPWithin an SAP system, the Oracle initialization file must exist with a specific name in a specific directory; if it does not, the SAPGUI and SAPDBA utilities will not work properly. Within both Oracle documentation and third-party books, the initialization file is ususally referred to as INIT.ORA, and I've followed that convention in this book. Note, however, that the actual name of this file in your system will be INITsapsid.ORA, where sapsid is the Oracle SID for your database (described in the previous section) and has the name you've specified for it. For example, if your Oracle SID is SA9, your initialization file will have the name INITSA9.ORA. In SAP systems, the intialization file must be located in the directory oracle//dbs; for example, oracle/SA9/dbs. In addition to the basic initialization file, SAP allows configuration or subinitialization files to be called from the INIT.ORA file. Most Oracle administrators find it more convenient to place all of the Oracle initialization parameters in a single file; however, sometimes it makes sense to segregate different types of parameters into several files. For example, if your site is configured differently for transaction processing (during the day) and for batch processing (at night), you might include common initialization parameters in a single configuration (CONFIG.ORA) file but have separate INIT.ORA files for day and night processing. You'd restart with the appropriate INIT.ORA file for each time period. (This approach should not be confused with BASIS op modes.)Within the INIT.ORA file, you must follow the SAP conventions for parameters summarized in Table 1-1.Table 1-1:SAP Conventions for the INIT.ORA FileFigure 1-4.Standard SAP tablespacesSAP has segregated the Oracle tables into tablespaces according to their functions. As shown in Figure 1-4, each tablespace can be classified as a transaction tablespace, a BASIS tablespace, or an SAP system tablespace. Note that the SAP application has a system tablespace (called PSAPDICTD), just as the Oracle database has a system tablespace. The following sections describe these tablespaces. SAP folks disregard the leading PSAP in each tablespace and the ending "D" or "I" in each tablespace name. Hence, the PSAPSTABD tablespace is commonly referred to as STAB.Transaction tablespacesTransaction tablespaces hold the application data for individual transactions. These transaction tablespaces include the BTAB, STAB, and USER1 tablespaces:BTABHolds the SAP transaction tables. These tables constitute the heart of SAP, and the Oracle administrator may choose to migrate the largest and most active tables into other tablespaces for improved data management.STABHolds the SAP master data and transparent tables. These are normally the master reference tables for the SAP application holding commonly referenced application information.USER1Commonly defined to hold user customization tables that are not defined with the SAP software.In an operational SAP database, these tablespaces will experience the highest read-write activity and will grow very large as your end users load SAP with their business data. Thus, you'll need to monitor these tablespaces very closely, since they may fill and cause the entire SAP application to stop. Many Oracle/SAP administrators run scripts to identify the largest and most active tables in these tablespaces and move these tables into separate tablespaces. These separate tablespaces are then segregated by disk for better overall I/O management. Oracle administrators sometimes use file striping for these tablespaces to balance the load across many disk devices, and thereby improve throughput. I'll describe SAP tablespace monitoring in some detail in Chapter 4, SAP Database Monitoring.BASIS tablespacesThe BASIS tablespaces include BTABD, STABD, DICT, LOAD, PROT, and SOURCE. SAP uses these Oracle tablespaces to store data that is used to perform basic SAP system functions. For example:PROTHolds the output from ABAP reports while they are waiting to be printed, and contains spool, converter, and log tables.SOURCE and LOADContain the ABAP source code for reports and screens. In an SAP system, remember that ABAP is run in an interpretive mode, and the source code is gathered from these tablespaces at runtime for interpreting.DICTContains the ABAP data dictionary, and consists of SAP metadata; in this sense, the DICT tablespace is very similar to the traditional Oracle SYSTEM tablespace.System tablespacesThe most important SAP system tablespaces are POOL, CLU, and DOCU:POOLUsed to store the SAP system pool tables. These are similar to the master data tables found in the STAB (transaction) tablespaces, but SAP considers them too small to require their own Oracle tables. The items from the POOL tablespaces are generally buffered and loaded into the memory of the dialog instance, so POOL is not heavily accessed except at SAP startup time.CLUContains SAP cluster tables. Unlike Oracle clusters, SAP cluster tables are stored into Oracle tables with LONG RAW datatypes. The data within the LONG RAW columns are used by SAP as subtables, and each row within an SAP cluster table may contain data that is completely unrelated to the next row in the table. These pseudo-tables present a challenge to the Oracle administrator, especially when they must be reorganized, because you can't use Oracle's CREATE TABLE AS SELECT command with tables that contain LONG RAW columns. Consequently, reorganizations of the CLU tables must be performed with Oracle's slower Export/Import utilities. I'll discuss this topic in Chapter 5, Table, Tablespace, and Index Reorganization.DOCUContains the document tables, including the sapscript and sapfind tables. This is a relatively small tablespace with fewer than 30 tables.Oracle Files in SAPIn a typical Oracle configuration, you can map an Oracle tablespace to a single datafile or to many datafiles. Because of the large size of many SAP installations, an Oracle/SAP tablespace generally maps to many datafiles. In a production SAP environment, many of these tables will never be used, while other tables will grow very rapidly. Thus, in general, you should identify and segregate the highly active tables into separate tablespaces. Chapter 4 includes a script you can use to identify the SAP tables that are growing.SAP is quite strict about the names for its default tablespaces, so you cannot change these names, but you can add new tablespaces. When you segregate SAP tables into a separate tablespace, however, you can name that tablespace anything you like. Although SAP gives you complete freedom in tablespace naming, SAP AG suggests that when a new tablespace contains a single table, the tablespace name be a permutation of the table name. For example, the table named VBAP could be moved into a tablespace with any of the following names: PSAPVBAPD, VBAPD, or VBAP. An SAP purist would preface the tablespace name with PSAP and end the tablespace with the letter "D." This is helpful in order to be consistent with the other SAP naming conventions, and it can also be helpful when using SAPGUI to view tablespace information.Oracle system filesWhile many standard Oracle configurations generally follow Oracle's Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA) standard, SAP has changed this standard somewhat, in an effort to create a "flat" file hierarchy (see Figure 1-5).Figure 1-5.The Oracle/SAP file architectureNote that $ORACLE_HOME is set to the same value as /oracle/, and all of the Oracle database software is located directly beneath this directory. For example, the Oracle executables are always located in /oracle//bin.Oracle datafilesWithin SAP, Oracle database files are named somewhat differently from the way they're named in traditional Oracle databases. The default SAP installation uses datafile names in which the prefix matches the tablespace name. For the filename suffix, rather than using a dbf suffix, SAP requires that datafiles contain the datan suffix. In this way, the Oracle datafile called psappooli.data3, for example, will be instantly recognizable as the third datafile for the POOL data indexes.Oracle indexesSAP also follows a standard for index naming. All Oracle index names default to eight characters in length; they always begin with the table name, end with a number, and use between one and three underscore characters in between. All indexes that end with a zero represent the primary key indexes for the table, and all nonzero numbers represent secondary indexes. For example, you will be able to tell that VBEP_ _ _0 is the primary key index for the VBEP table, and that VLPMA_ _1 is the secondary index for the VLPMA table. To properly display indexes within SAPGUI, all new SAP indexes should begin with the table name and end with a unique numeric character. Also, it is important that the index names be eight characters long, using a variable number of underscore ( _ ) characters.SAP Filesystems on UnixIn addition to the required Oracle filesystems, some SAP-specific filesystems are found on most of the SAP application servers. These filesystems are used to hold certain Unix files that are required for SAP to function in the Unix environment. These include the SAP executable programs, SAP configuration files, and other SAP system-related datafiles, as follows:/usr/sap/transThis directory contains the common transport directory, .sapconf, as well as other SAP and Oracle configuration files. For distributed Oracle systems, this directory may also contain the master tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files./sapmnt/This directory stores system-wide files for SAP, including executables, global files, and profiles./usr/sap/This directory stores instance-specific files for each SAP dialog instance.The Oracle Database Layer of SAPAs you know, SAP is designed to work with many database management systems; interfaces are available for Oracle, DB2, Informix, and several other database products. Since SAP is database-independent, the SAP architecture requires the database to be defined as a part of the initial SAP installation. Once defined, the SAP programs (ABAP programs) will generate SQL that is compliant with the target database product. Native Oracle SQL is generated by the ABAP program at runtime, and the SQL is then passed to Oracle for execution. The dynamic nature of ABAP SQL greatly increases its flexibility, but it makes it very difficult for the Oracle administrator to provide SQL tuning for Oracle. Because the SQL is generated from the ABAP at runtime, there is no way to change the executionThe three layers are:Presentation layerThe PC-based GUI interface that is used by the end-user community.Application layerThe SAP application servers that service requests for data and manage the interface to the presentation layer.Database layerThe actual DBMS that communicates with the application servers to fulfill their requests for data.A piece of "middleware" called BASIS links the application to the database and the operating system. BASIS is most commonly associated with the GUI interface to SAP (called SAPGUI), and the BASIS Administrator is an SAP professional who is responsible for configuring the SAP environment, including the GUI screens and the SAP application servers.SAP end users log into their PCs using SAPGUI, and are connected to a specific application server. This application server has pre-established connections with the Oracle database, and it services all requests for data. As I mentioned earlier, the access language for Oracle data is SAP ABAP. ABAP generates Oracle SQL (Structured Query Language), which is then used to service the end user's request for data. The communication between the application servers and the database, and between the client and the application servers, is TCP/IP.While SAP is available for many different hardware platforms and operating systems, the majority of SAP systems use Unix-based servers for hosting SAP and the Oracle database. For this reason, as mentioned in the Preface, this book assumes the use of Unix in most examples.The application serverWhile SAP uses the generic term application server to define a computer that receives connections from SAP clients, the actual connections are managed by SAP dialog servers.A dialog instance is a software program that is running the SAP kernel (similar to an Oracle instance), and it is the job of the dialog instance to execute the ABAP programs and manage the requests for data and services. While there is generally a one-to-one mapping between an application server and a dialog instance, it is possible to have more than one dialog instance on an application server.The central instanceThe central instance is a concept that is unique to SAP. The central instance is a combination of hardware and software. It contains a physical server (the application server) and numerous software components, including a message server, a database gateway (a pre-established connection between SAP and Oracle--or another database), and various update, enqueue, dialog, and spool facility software. In most generic SAP architectures, there are numerous application servers but only a single central instance. However, in addition to managing the SAP interfaces, the central instance can also serve as an application server.Bear in mind that SAP is very flexible, and there are many different ways to configure an SAP architecture to meet your business needs. However, most companies that implement SAP wisely choose to alter their business practices to accommodate SAP. By avoiding customization of its SAP application, a company can more easily upgrade its SAP software.TIP: In 1998 SAP AG announced that the company is planning a four-tiered client/server architecture that will isolate the database from the SAP applications. Under the four-tiered architecture, the database will be insulated from SAP by the use of an active database cache called liveCache. This expanded memory cache will act as a separate layer, further insulating the Oracle database from the SAP application and allowing for the real-time manipulation of database objects.Work processesAny computer is capable of running one or more application servers. The main purpose of a dialog instance is to intercept requests for work from the SAP clients and to execute ABAP programs to service the requests for data. In addition, a dialog instance contains a dispatcher task and a set of work processes (WPs). The WPs are Unix tasks that can easily be identified by logging on to the Unix server and entering the following command:PS -ef|grep dwAll SAP WPs contain the string "dw" (an acronym for Dialog Work) in their process names. The dispatcher on an SAP dialog receives requests from the SAP users (see Figure 1-2). In cases where a computer is running more than one dialog instance, there is one dispatcher for each dialog instance.INIT.ORA ParameterFilesystem DestinationUSER_DUMP_DEST/oracle//saptrace/usertraceLOG_ARCHIVE_DEST/oracle//saparch/SAPSID_BACKGROUND_DUMP_DEST/oracle//saptrace/backgroundAUDIT_FILE_DEST/oracle//rdbms/auditCONTROL_FILES/oracle//sapdata-nn/cntrl1.data1Oracle Tablespaces in SAPIn an SAP system, Oracle tablespace names always begin with the string "PSAP" and end with a "D" (data tablespace) or an "I" (index tablespace). Some of the common SAP tablespaces are PSAPCLUD, PSAPLOADD, and PSAPDICD.A standard SAP system contains only a handful of tablespaces. These tablespaces are designed to contain all of the SAP tables, and are defined as a part of the default SAP installation. Figure 1-4 shows the sample tablespace descriptions for an SAP installation. Within an Oracle/SAP tablespace, many of the tablespaces will remain small--for example, the metadata information in the DICT tablespace.

Pero sabi ni Dyong, malapit na silang lumipat sa damo o maaaring shabubasta't palarin si Nenet, sila.Yun. Kaya walong kutsara sila ngayon, nagsimula na yata ang suwerte ni Nenet kagabi. Pers taym na ipinarada siya ni Dyong sa Ermita, agad may nakanang Ostralyanong datan. Twenti dolars ang hatag. Nagpakabusog sa hamberger at kok sina Dyong, Nenet, at Toto. Si Dodoy, di kaya kahit anong sarap. Ayaw humiwalay nung amoy, nung sigaw. Bumili ng damit si Nenet sa Sentral Market, pati lipstick at pabangong emseben. Bumili rin si Dyong ng bayodyesek para sa lagnat ni Nenet. Hindi ito makagulapay paggising kaninang umaga. Sabi ni Dyong, pers taym kasi sa parener, kaya ganun.Si Dyong, titigil na rin sa pagdapa sa kalsada. Paparada na rin sa parener ngayong gabi. Kung sakali, paparadi na rin si Dodoy at Toto sa mgs darating na gabi. Baka sakali, iiwan na nila ang kalsada tulad Nina Bet, Warly, Kongkong, Perdi, Sali, Mimi…Paparada na sila sa parener.Habang papalapit si Dodoy sa inabandonang bilding, sumagi sa isip niya ang mga sinabi ni Dyong noon, noong buo pa ang gusali at nang masunog ito. Napakagandang bilding nito dati, labas-masok ang mga maayos na Tao, yung magagara ang damit. Ni sa hinagap pa nga e, Hindi niya inakalang isang araw e, magiging tirahan niya, nila, ito, labindalawang palapag. Puro nga abo't uling pero ang laking panangga sa lamig at sakuna sa gabi. Minsan, noong buo pa ang bilding, ang lakas ng ulan, sumilong sila sa may pinto nito, doon na natulog, pero ipinagtabuyan sila ng guwardiya, tinutukan ng baril ang nguso ni Dyong nang umangal ito. Sinagasa nila ang ulan. Nilagnat si Nenet, ang taas, nagdiliryo nang ilang araw, akala nila mamamatay. Sabi ni Dyong, putang-ina, susunugin ko ang bilding! Isang araw nga, mga tatlong buwan na, nasunog ang gusali. Minsang langong-lango sila sa solben, sabi ni Dyong, siya ang sumunog. Pero walalng naniwala sa kanilang tatlo. Ngayon, habang paakyat siya sa bilding, naitatanong niya, si Dyong nga kaya ang sumunog nito? Baka totoo. Siya nga e…Ang tagal mo, a.Kumakain sina Dyong, Nenet at Toto ng hamberger at kok na naman. May para kay Dodoy pero ayaw niya.Talagang nagpapakamatay ka na, ano? Ang payat-payat mo na. Kalimutan mo na ang nanay mo. Patay na yun! O, kainin mo!Ayaw. Buang na talaga! Yun ang sabi ni Nenet. Ang nabubuang daw, Hindi kumakain nang matagal. Tapos, laging nakatungo, nakatanghod, tulala, nakanganga. Ganun si Dodoy. Naaawa si Nenet.Pansiyam na ngayong araw, gabi, na halos di kumakain si Dodoy. Titikim lang ng konti, wala na. Sabi ni Dyong, pasiyam ngayon ng nanay mo. Basta pasiyam, nag-aalay ang mga namatayan ng pagkain, padasal, palaro. Nililimot ang kalungkutan ng pagkawala ng isang mahal sa buhay. Alam ni Dyong dahil istoawi siya galing sa probinsya. Ganun daw sa kanila kapay ika-siyam na araw ng patay. Kaya dapat huwag nang malungkot si Dodoy.Walong kutsara ngayon ang solben natin. Magseselebreyt tayo sa pasiyam ng nanay ni Dodoy. Tulad sa probinsya namin. Tapos, tsibog tayo, ha, Doy? Ha?Siyanga naman, Doy. Sige na. Selebreyt na!Sige. Bahagyang ngingiti si Dodoy, unang guhit ng ngiti sa kanyang mukha sa loob ng siyam na araw, gabi. Pero sa loob-loob niya, kung alam n'yo lang na Hindi sa lungkot kaya ako nagkakaganito… Hindi!Hating kapatid, ha, tigalawang kutsara tayo.Ay, Dyong, di ba hihintayin tayo ni Mister Pol Hanikom sa Anito?Alas diyes medya pa yun. Karga muna tayo. Maganda yung kargado ka para mawala yung sakit ng ulo mo at saka Hindi hahapdi 'yang sugat. Alam n'yo bang sinabi ni Mister Pol Hanikom na kapag nakakita siya ng isang buong bahay na mauupahan, ititira niya dun si Nenet, kasama tayo, di ba sinabi niya, Net?Oo, kaya lang… parang natatakot ako, e…Ito ang langit para kay Dodoy. Mamumula ang kanyang mga mata, mangangapal at mamamanhid ang kanyang balat, maninindig ang kanyang mga balahibo, wari'y mamimimitig ang kanyang mga binti, nagiging maganda ang paligid, nagiging masaya, nagiging paraiso. Yung tambakan, nag-aanyong bundok ng ginto. Ang init ng araw, walang haplit, sumusuko. Ang lamig ng gabi, umaamo, nagiging kaulayaw. Lahat ng pagkain, maski panis, masarap, malinamnam. Nagiging maganda siyang lalaki, Hindi sunog ang balat, Hindi kinakalayo ang mga palad at apakan, Hindi nagluluga ang kaliwang tenga, Hindi nananakit ang mga bulok niyang ngipin, gumagara ang malabasahan niyang kasuotan, nagmimistulang anghel sa kagandahan si Nenet…Si Nanay niya, masaya sa solben, matagal dung gumamit. Siya ang nagturo. Noon una, galit ito. Putang-yawa ka, Dodoy! Masama ang adik-adik. Pero nang dapuan ito ng tebi, pangangati ng katawan at nagsimulang mangayayat, sinubok ang solben, nasarapan ito, naiibsan ang dusa niya. Kaya tuwing uuwi siya, may pasalubong siyang solben at siopao sa nanat niya. Alam na Nina Dyong ito.Naikuwento na rin niya kay Nenet na wala siyang tatay. Galing ng Bohol si Nanay niya, yun ang sabi sa kanya. Hindi alam ni Nenet kung saan ang Bohol. Sabi niya, parte pa rin ng Pilipinas. Nakalakihan niyang may labas-masok na lalaki sa mga natirhan nila sa iskwater hanggang nang makabili ng munting dampa sa tambakan. Greyd wan lang siya. Wala nang lalaking lumapit sa nanay niya. Kailangan na niyang maghanap ng pambili ng pagkain at gamot ng nanay niya. Nang lumalala ang kanyang nanay, panahong nakilala niya sina Dyong. Sa kalsada na rin siya tumira. Ayaw na siyang patulugin ng nanay niya sa dampa. Baka raw mahawa siya. Maski ano'ng gawin niya, Hindi niya kayang bilhin ang mga gamot.Hindi na rin nanghingi ng gamot ang nanay niya. Solben na lang at siopao.Kwento ka nga, Doy. Magaling kang magkwento, e. Sabi ni Nenet. Magkukuwento siya basta si Nenet.Kwento yun ng nanay niya, sabi niya, paborito niyang kwento. Ngayon lang niya ikukuwento kay Nenet, kasama na rina sina Dyong at Toto dahil naroroon sila. Kwentong piritil daw, sinauna. Kwento ni Huse Lisar.Anong Huse Lisa? Huse Risal!Hagalpakan ng tawa sina Dyong at Toto. Utal, gago! Gusto niyang ma-bad trip per magkukwento siya kay Nenet. At saka maliit siya, e, Hindi niya kaya ang dalawa.Yun daw kasing gamu-gamo, matigas ang ulo, yung anak, ha, Hindi yung ina. Mag-ina, e. Sabi ng ina, mainit yang apoy ng ilaw na de gas kaya huwag kang maglaro sa malapit na malapit dahil malapit ang aksidente dun. E, ito kasing anak, matigas ang ulo. Isang araw, naglikot siya, Hindi sa ilaw kundi dun sa tenga ni Huse…Risal, gago!Tapos, sabi ni Nenet.Di napaigtad si Huse…Risal, gago!Tapos…Natabig ni kuwan yung ilawang de gas at lumiyab yung mesa. E, sa ilalim ng mea nakatira ang mag-inang gamu-gamo. Nasunog sila. A, Hindi yung anak lang pala ang nasunog muna dahil naghahanap ng pagkain ang ina. Umiyak yung nanay nang malaman ang nangyari sa anak. Tapos, nagpakamatay siya.Maiiyak si Nenet.O, pinagtripan mo na naman iyong kuwento. Hindi naman nakakaiyak, e, kuwento ng katangahan iyon, e.Ilang elarti na ang dumaan.Wow, halos panabay nilang nauusal kapag may na daraan. Natatahimik sila, ninanamnam ang sawns, ang korol.Dyong, sumakay tayo ng elarti bukas, lambing ni Nenet.Teka… sige.Sama kami.Oo. Pag may nakuha si Nenet mamaya kay Mister Pol Hanikom. Bibili tayo ng tig-iisang teysert para Hindi tayo nakakahiya.Bukas na lang tayo pumunta kay Mister…Ngayon na. Usapan, e.Mahapdi, e…Singhot ka nang todo para hay na hay ka, mawawala 'yan. Basta bukas, sasakay tayong lahat sa elarti.Naalala ni Dodoy yung sinabi ni Dong, yung pagsunog ng bilding.Oo, kasi ayaw n'yong maniwala. Akala ko kasi noon, mamamatay na si Nenet. Ang ginawa ko, humingi ako ng gas kay Nenet, di ba marami siyang das na panlinis ng tumitigas na solbent? Yun, sabi ko para sa ilaw natin. Nakikita n'yo yung istasyon dun ng elarti? Dun, sumingit ako noong malapit nang magsara. Nagtago ako. Tapos, nung wala nang elarti, binaybay ko yung tabi ng riles. Pagtapat ko diya sa terd plor, binato ko yung salamin ng bintana. Dun ko ipinasok yung sinindihan kong basahan na babad sa gas. Huwag n'yong ikukuwento sa iba, ha?Oo.Dumalang ang elarti.Magbihis na tayo, Net.Atubili si Nenet, nakatingin kina Dodoy at Toto.Halika na, magagalit si Mister Pol Hanikom, e.Atubiling tatayo si Nenet, inaalalayan ni Dyong.Kaya mo ba, Net, Hindi na ba masakit ang ulo mo?Kaya niya.Doy, huwag ka nang malulungkot, ha? Bobolahin ko si Mister Pol Hanikom para may teysert tayo bukas, tapos sasakay tayo ng elarti at saka kakain tayo ng masasarap. Kumain ka na rin kasi…Tatango si Dodoy. Umiika si Nenet. Parang gusto niyang pigilan kaya lang baka magalit si Dyong. At saka gusto niya sanang sabihin kay Nenet na Hindi naman siya nalulungkot. Dapat nga, magluwag ang kalooban niya dahil lipas na ang paghihirap ng nanay niya. Mas gusto lang sana siyang ikuwento pa kay Nenet…Hindi niya alam kung matatanggap ni Nenet. Baka magalit. A, kay Toto na lang muna. Kay Toto na lang…Matapos bihisan ni Dyong si Nenet at magbihis din siya, lumakad na sila.Pilit na inaaninag ni Dodoy si Nenet habanag paalis na sila ni Dyong hanggang sa nawala na ang gma ito sa may hagdan. Alam niyang ayaw ni Nenet na pumunta kay Mister… Hindi niya mabigkas yung pangalan. Ayaw ni Nenet. Dati, gustung-gusto nito, pero matapos ang unang parada kagabi, narinig niyang nagreklamo si Nenet kay Dyong… Hindi naman pala mabait ang parener.Masasanay ka rin, sabi ni Dyong. Noong una nga, akala natin Hindi natin kayang humiga sa kalsada na bilad maghapon, nauulanan pa nga tayo pero nakaya natin. Kaya.Tuloy ang dyaming Nina Dodoy at Toto.Ikaw, To, asan ang nanay at tatay mo?Ako… sabihin ko na sa 'yo ang totoo, Doy, wala rin akong tatay, puta rin ang nanay ko. Pero tumigil na.Asan na siya?Hindi ko alam. Iniwan niya ako, e. Sabi niya babalik siya. Hintay ako nang hintay dunsa tinitirhan namin dati sa Baclaran, pero Hindi na siya bumalik. Putang-ina niya, galit ako sa kanya. Ikaw, Doy, Hindi ka ba galit sa nanay mo?Noon. Ayoko lang yung mga laalaking panay ang pasok sa bahay pag gabi. Ginagalaw nila si Nanay tapos sinisia ako pagtumitingin ako sa ginagawa nila. Kunwari tulog akong lagi pag may lalaki sa bahay. Kawawa si Nanay…Tutulo ang luha ni Dodoy. Ngayon lang siya umiyak, ngayong pasiyam. Maiiyak din si Toto.Galit ako sa nanay ko… pero mahal ko din naman siya kahit na iniwan niya ako…Madalang na madalang na ang elarti. Kargadong-kargado na sina Dodoy at Toto. Panay pa rin ang singhot nila ng solben. Banat hanggang sa kaya.To, naniniwala ka ba kay Dyong na siya ang sumunog sa bilding na 'to?Maniniwala ka rin ba na sinunog ko ang nanay ko?Ano?Sinunog ko si Nanay, To… sinunog ko siya…Umiiling si Toto. Hindi mo yun magagawa sa nanay mo. Nanay mo yun, e. Hindi ako maniniwala!Sinunog ko siya, To… sinunong ko yung bahay namin… dinurog ko muna siya ng solben, durog na durog… tapos, nung hay na hay na siya, binuhusan ko yung bahay ng gas… kay Nenet ko rin hiningi yung gas…Putang-ina…Kaya ako Hindi makatulog, To… Hindi ako makakain… Hindi ko malimutan yung sigaw ni Nanay, saka yung amoy ng nasusunog niyang laman… ginawa ko yun kasi awang-awa na ako sa kanya… tuwing uubo siya, may dugo… yung katawan niya, puro nana at butas… nilalanga siya… pag gabi, kinakain siya ng mga daga… putsa… putsa talaga…Yuyugyog ang buong katawan ni Dodoy sa kanyang paghagulgol.Mapapaatras si Toto. Magsusuka nang magsusuka, lalayo.Samahan mo akom To. Huwag mo akong iwan dito…Ayoko na! Bad trip ka! Putang-ina! Tatakbo si Toto, lalamunin ng dilim.Totodohin ni Dodoy ang pagsinghot sa solben, parang mauubusan, parang hinahabol, kailangan niyang mapuno, mawala para Hindi mahabol ng amoy ng nasusunog na laman, ng nakalulunos na sigaw.Kaginsa-ginsa'y may naulinigan siyang tunog, parang malayong sigaw? Hindi, sawns! Sawns nga! Hayun, tanaw niya ang papalapit na elarti. Andaming korol.Tatayo si Dodoy, hahakbang sa hanggahan ng palapag. Sasakay ako sa elarti, mauuna ako sa kanila… Hindi nila ako mahahabol. Guguhit ang ngiti sa kanyang mukha.Bago tumapat sa gusali ang rumaragasang dambuhalang uod ay lumipad na si Dodoy… sa magpakailanman.Wow.Postcript:Si Nenet, namatay sa impeksyon ng kanyang maselang parte.Si Toto, nasa sentro ng rehabilitasyon para sa mga adik.Si Dyong, inampon, sabi'y inasawa ni Mister Paul Honeycombe. Nasa Ostralya na sila.
