NFS will work only if you are using Network Appliance. Just plain UNIX NFS
will not work. You will get a corrupt database.

Subject: datafiles on NFS?
I've got a 9iR2 database on an AIX server which is currently experiencing some
SAN problems. The SysAdmins have indicated that we need to move off the SAN
for several days while they address the issue, and has suggested that we
relocate the database to NFS in the interim. My preference would be a
backup/restore to another server, but we unfortunately don't have any other AIX
systems available, and the application has some constraints which prevent us
from migrating to another OS at present.
I'm somewhat reluctant to use NFS for Oracle datafiles, largely because we
simply haven't done this for any other environments, but I'm not sure that I
have many options in this specific case. Is anyone doing this? If so, is
there anything in particular that I should be sure to check/address?
Thanx!
