Another note is if you use Oracle Linux 6.5 you won't be able to complete
the section of the lab for creating ACFS volumes.
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/RAC_Attack_-_Oracle_Cluster_Database_at_Home/RAC_Attack_12c/ASM_Configuration
After running ASMCA you will notice that the Volumes and ACFS tabs are
greyed out.
