Hi Jeffrey,
it depends on your Linux version, Oracle DB version and hardware
platform, if you ask Oracle.
Oracle MOS is a bit contradictory in that case. Quoting Doc ID
2197176.1:
"Oracle Database is supported on ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems (see
Note:236826.1 for further information)"
And Doc ID 2196637.1 (Linux on System z):
"Oracle Database is supported on ext2, ext3, ext4 and xfs file
systems"
FWIW, on RHEL or OL7 I still stick to Ext4 after having trouble with
sluggish performance having DB files on xfs (using direct i/o).
Cheers,
Uwe
