Can I create an OCFS 2 filesystem over a ASM volume to store datafiles? Thanks! Roger---

Not really. OCFS and OCFS2 will overwrite the ASM headers and the volumes will now become OCFS/OCFS2. ;) Could you elaborate on your thinking?

Thanks for your responses. Actually this is for our customer's configuration. If ASM and OCFS can work together just like other VM software and with better VM management and performance. We would like to test that on our storage boxes.
