Hi,
.... first of all, I'm not a Solaris guru, so please forgive my popssibly
dumb questions. :)
Lacking a system administrator in our company, I have the honor to install a
V210. The requirement is as follows:
Solaris 10 with Companion CD
/export/home all available remaining space
Oracle 10g installed on /export/home
This V210 has 1GB of RAM.
I thought the following might be a possible candidate for disk layout:
Slice Name Size

0 / 8 GB
1 swap 4 GB
2 (whole disk) 73 GB
5 /opt 4 GB
6 /tmp 4 GB
7 /export/home 53 GB
I heard I need /var with 2 times physical memory. I heard other people say I
don't need this. So I'm not sure. What is your opinion on this?
Can one of you experts advise me on a reasonable disk layout with a single
73 GB disk? I'd very much appreciate that. Thanks very much in advance.
Also, I'm currently downloading Solaris 10. Is there a difference between
the CD and the DVD version other than that the DVD version obviously only
needs one plastic platter instead of 6 or 7 of course? ;)
