Hello everybody,

I'm a unexperienced and just started DBA

I'm changing our Unix infrastructure servers (Alphaserver 1000 and RS6000) in order to be able to run five Oracle instances in only a unix Server box. The instances aren't too big (maximum 30 GB the big one). The number of users is about 2-3 at max doing queries with Oracle Discover. There isn't OLTP.

The Question is: could be that I'm doing crazy things or perhaps somebody has any experience on this one?. Also I'm trying to size the right machine (Digital or HP)

Thanks in advance
