Oracle ACFS is the preferred file manager for non-database files, which can be visualized as a layer on Oracle ASM and is configured with Oracle ASM storage. It is optimized for general purpose files.Oracle ACFS should not contain file types that can be directly stored in Oracle ASM. Doing that could violate oracle recommended best practices and even void support coverage.

Here are the basic commands list for ACFS.

root@oda1 /root #acfsutil -h

Usage: acfsutil [-h] command ... # (Version 12.1.0.2.0)

-h - help
