After dealing with multiple filesystems of very busy databases for the last
year (one of which is 70+TB), I would say ASM ALL THE WAY. Never go back
to filesystems after using ASM.
Adding space, managing space is so much better on ASM.
Just my $0.02.

Hi all,
considering the technology today: XFS as default FS on Linux 7, the modern
HW and the latest VMware versions, what storage type would you use for a
single database instance on VMware?
Oracle versions are from 11.2 to 12.2, database size varies from 300G to
3T+.
Would you use XFS with non-default values for filesystemio_options or ASM?
