Not having ocfs2 available is not going to lead us to use Oracle Linux, rather we are much more likely to use GFS or Veritas. We have a large implementation of HP hardware / RHEL, and have standard monitoring tools, scripts, etc to build / manage machines, and would be very unlikely to introduce another OS into the mix.

SUSE actively maintains the ocfs2 kmp (kernel module packages) rpm for 
it's distributions. It comes with the high-availability extensions.

For that matter, we use and recommend it for all our clustering 
solutions which require shared filesystems.
