In opposite-coloured bishop positions the rule is almost always the same: you want your 'bad' pawns, the ones you have to defend or restrain the opponent's pawns with, on the squares of your own bishop, and your 'good' pawns, the ones which protect each other or which form a majority you aim to advance, on the squares of your opponent's bishop, both so that they restrain the bishop and so that they are harder for him to blockade.
