It was confirmed that this configuration is valid.

However, we do use /tmp heavily, and I changed it to tmpfs as was
suggested

fd      -       /dev/fd fd      -       no      -
/proc   -       /proc   proc    -       no      -
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s3       -       -       swap    -       no      -
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s0       /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0s0      /       ufs     1       no
-
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s6       /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0s6      /usr    ufs     1       no
-
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s1       /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0s1      /var    ufs     1       no
-
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s5       /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0s5      /opt    ufs     2
yes

thanks!
