Oracle ACFS has the following resource limitations:
All Oracle ACFS resources require root privileges to create.
All Oracle ACFS resources require root privileges to remove.
All Oracle ACFS file system resources require root privileges to act upon, such as starting and stopping the resources, but can be configured to allow another user, such as a database user, to do so. In this case, the root user must be used to configure the resource.
All Oracle ADVM volume resources allow the ASMADMIN user to act upon them.
All Oracle ACFS resources are only available in Oracle RAC mode. Oracle ACFS resources are not supported in Oracle Restart configurations. For more information about Oracle ACFS and Oracle Restart, refer to "Oracle ACFS and Oracle Restart".
