TTBOMK you have made an incorrect assumption. Oracle 10g is perfectly compatible with Veritas. Though why you would want to pay a license fee to Veritas for what you get included with Oracle is another matter but one that is financial rather than technical.

Unless you have some masochistic desire to deal with two vendors engaged in a finger-pointing exercise use OCFS.

But you certainly can continue to use Veritas if you wish.
