Oracle on Solaris Configuration

Hi All:

I'm going to be configuring and supporting a few Solaris boxes in the near future, and figured one of the best ways to make sure they start with a solid configuration is to ask those who are currently running similar systems for their recommendations based on their expertise.

If you were given a dual processor 220R with 2GB of RAM, two internal 36GB drives, and an A1000 storage unit with five drives installed (either 18GB or 36GB drives), how would you configure it to support a DSS database which uses six tablespaces (system, data, index, dynamic, temporary and rollback)? For the sake of discussion, at least three instances each having an SGA of approximately 200MB will be running. Also, presume Solaris 8 and Oracle 8.1.6.

Thanks In Advance!
