On RHEL6 I would go EXT4, it's a solid update from EXT3, or has been from what
I can tell so far. Besides, it's the default on RHEL6 now.

I've been running on EXT3 for now 5 years, one year on 6.1 and 6.2 on several
servers, it's solid, no complaints. Performance has always been enough, from
where I'm standing you go with the most commonly used solid filesystem in
Linux, for me that's EXT3.

Setting up a tsm 6.2.2 server under redhat enterprise linux 6 on the intel
platform.
Wondering what was the group's opinion on which type of file system to use for
storage pools?
Since raw devices are not supported, I am looking to maximize space and
performance as much as possible.
