Yes, OEL 6 is not supported yet, but we still have a large test system which is running singe instance database with ASM on OEL 6u1, till now is running without any problems.

Actually, by default, when you install GI 11.2 on OEL6, root.sh will give error. you have to do some extra work to let GI can be installed on OEL6 and let GI can start automatically after OS restart.

For workaround, please refer to:

Good luck.
