At a site I used to manage we set things up using the SYSMAN startup 
database.  Things can be done in parallel by setting procedures to be
SPAWNED for execution or for submission to batch.

We had probably 20-30 procedures or more in the database and it seemed
to work fairly well.  We did our own homegrown procedure for speeding
up the mounting of disks in a parallel fashion.  Some of the disks were
mounted as a result of SYPAGSWP*.com being invoked and the rest came 
later in the process.
