If you're running Oracle on top of OCFS, Oracle will provide *FREE* support for your OS plus OCFS. Who better to support OCFS than Oracle anyway?
It only gets interesting if you really want OCFS but don't want to run Oracle. Then you have choices to make. Note that you can run GFS for free without support if you chose to do so although I'd question why you'd want to run a supported operating system on an unsupported file system...
