So, it appears that Oracle is leaving OCFS2 builds up to RedHat now for the 
RedHat specific kernels (including support) starting with Red Hat 6.

Does anyone know if the Red Hat network has OCFS2 rpms for RH 6?  (I don't have 
a RH subscription)

" We continue to fully support OCFS2 as part of Oracle Linux and the 
Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel and other vendors make their own decisions on 
support as it's really a Linux cluster filesystem now more than something that 
we provide to customers. It really just is part of Linux like EXT3 or BTRFS 
etc, the OS distribution vendors decide."

Subject: OCFS2 certified with EL 6 (RH or Oracle) ?

I'm having a hard time locating on metalink a certification matrix for EL 6 and 
OCFS2.  Does one exist?
Looking at oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2 documentation it appears to only be 
supported up to v. 5 of both Oracle/RH Linux 6 but it's not spelled out 
anywhere.

Anyone have a note id handy that shows it is certified/supported on EL 6?
