ASM and RAW Devices on RHEL 4

Hi



I am going to install a 10gR2 RAC in a couple of weeks. It will be RHEL 4
Update 2 and I will be using ASM for all database files.
However I have some doubts, I am wondering if ASMLib API gives better
performance than Linux standard I/O API? Anyone with both ASMLib experience
and ASM + RAW + Linux I/O API?



I also read this note, Note:357492.1, Linux 2.6 kernel deprecation of raw
devices. I was planning to use RAW Devices for the voting disk and OCR
files. If raw devices are deprecated does it mean I must use OCFS2?




TIA


LSC
