Need help, OLTP vs. DSS system

Posted By:
Date:

hi!
i have one big database(around 500 tbls, 15 tbls foreach over 1 million recs) in one instance which supports many OLTP systems and some DSS systems.The diskIO is extremely busy for some tables which belongs to project AA and resides in one SSA loop. Other tables resides in another SSA loop are not so hot. this db resides in IBM-S80 machine that owns 12 CPU and 8GB memory. we don't enable LOG bc of older progs.
Question1: Should i make this db into 2 instances,one for OLTP and the other for DSS? if yes, how to make a hourly copy(we don't have LOG)?
Question2: What should i have to enhance the onconfig file also?(the onconfig file is listed below)
...
