You might be surprised.

XFS support is an extra for RHEL6; you need to add a channel (there's a fee 
IIRC).  As others have remarked, it is the default for RHEL7.

However, at least on x86_64, the kernel supports the filesystem. You only need 
to obtain the xfsprogs to create a filesystem.

You can hand install the CentOS rpm if necessary. I'd pay the $s myself, but my 
management is a little weird about expenses.

Disclaimer: I'm not running any 32 bit RHEL systems.

I'm not weird; I'm gifted.
