Thanks, as far I been reading on the 12.1/12.2 ODA config docs seems they give you the option to create DB on ASM or ACFS now, instead of ACFS as in 11. That makes me wonder if it is because users demanded it or other reasons. Anyone with ODA can verify?

Ricard,

It might be worth getting in touch with the ODA team since the ODA uses ACFS by default. I'm sure they must have done some testing in the area already.
