You want an internal temperature of at least 145°F or 63°C for rare slices up to 195°F or 91°C to get a disintegrating pulled pork.
How you get there and at what temp is very subjective. If you're oven roasting at 215°F then you're in for a 6-14 hour cook time depending on the mass of your roast. You'll get a wonderful, slow cooked meat, but prep time and temperature monitoring become vital. Sous Vide will cook at an even lower temperature; as low as 120°F over 24 hours, but I really don't like that method. Too much time for food born illness bacteria to form.
I like to make pulled pork, that's done around 195°F - 200°F internal temp, but a 7-8 lb roast will take almost 12-14 hours cooking at 215°F oven temp.
