Mario:

If you are using Solaris with 2GB of memory, it will be awfully difficult,
if not impossible, to run 6 instances of Oracle8i simultaneously.
Basically, because of the use of semaphores and the way Solaris manages
memory, I would say you could run 3 or 4 instances , depending on their
size.  But to have all six up and running, especially if you have to create
them, will not work.  Oracle usually needs 1 GB per instance while you are
creating a database.  While running it, you would not necessarily need that
much.  I advice you to upgrade the memory on the server to 8 GB. I suggest
you budget 1 GB per Oracle instance.
