I have heard some promising things about JFS, but even though Big Blue is behind it, it is also fairly immature.
jfs originated in AIX and it's been there for many years.
IBM ported it to OS/2 back when I was primarily an OS/2 user (prior to RHL 5.0). It's been around for a very long time.
However, use of any filesystem not supported by your vendor (and essentially that's Red Hat here) has its risks, and the maintenance task is all yours.
