    SAP Note

    405827 - Linux: Recommended file systems


    Component: BC-OP-LNX (Linux), Version: 27, Released On: 24.02.2023

    Symptom

    You want to use an SAP solution on Linux and search for decision support during the
    selection of the file system to be used.

    Other Terms

    Linux, EXT3, EXT4, GPFS, NFS, OCFS2, XFS

    Reason and Prerequisites

    The SAP-supported Linux distributions propose several file systems that you can select.
    Under certain circumstances, however, not every file system proposed by the relevant Linux
    distribution is also recommended for the use of all applications or supported by the
    respective application manufacturer. This applies in particular to use on database systems.

    Solution
    The use of a file system on Linux is allowed for SAP applications, provided the relevant
    Linux distributor and the database manufacturer, if necessary, also ensure this support. The
    same also applies for the use of storage systems.
    In the Linux environment, we do not certify any file systems and storage systems for use at
    the SAP application server level, and we also make no recommendations for certain file
    systems and storage systems.
    Nevertheless, other software solutions may not allow all of the file systems to be used to
    the same extent.
    The following is an overview of the recommendations for the relevant applications as far as
    they are known:
    IBM Db2
    Db2 11.5
    IBM Db2 Version 11.5 Knowledge Center - Recommended file systems
    Db2 11.1
    IBM Db2 Version 11.1 Knowledge Center - Recommended file systems

    Oracle DB
    Oracle 12
    2171857 - Oracle Database 12c - file system support on Linux
    Oracle 11
    1114181 - Oracle Database 11g - file system support on Linux

    SAP ASE
    No restrictions are known. SAP ASE supports all file systems supported by the
    relevant Linux distributor, but no RAW devices.
    SAP HANA
    2972496 - SAP HANA Filesystem Types

    SAP MaxDB
    2704435 - SAP MaxDB/liveCache - file system support on Linux

    If there are no recommendations or restrictions for the relevant application, you can refer
    to the standard file systems for data partitionings of the respective distributions as a
    guide. Here is an overview of them:
    Oracle Linux
    OL 8: XFS
    OL 7: XFS
    OL 6: EXT4
    OL 5: EXT3
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    RHEL 8: XFS
    RHEL 7: XFS
    RHEL 6: EXT4
    RHEL 5: EXT3
    SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
    SLES 15: XFS
    SLES 12: XFS
    SLES 11: EXT3
    SLES 10: EXT3
