Yes, with the following caveats: • RHEL 4 / GFS 6.1 is only certified to work with GULM locking protocol. • GULM nodes need to be external to the RAC/GFS cluster, that is, RAC/GFS nodes are not allowed to be GULM nodes (that run the lock manager) See the following for more information: Red Hat GFS: Installing and Configuring Oracle9i RAC with GFS: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/csgfs/oracle-guide/ RAC Technologies Compatibility Matrix for Linux Clusters: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/clustering/certify/tech_generic_linux.html RAC Technologies Compatibility Matrix for Linux x86 Clusters: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/clustering/certify/tech_linux_x86.html RAC Technologies Compatibility Matrix for Linux x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) Clusters: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/clustering/certify/tech_linux_x86_64.html Oracle Certification Environment Program: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/oce/oce_fact_sheet.
