We ship RHEL on our systems, along with our fault tolerance stuff. Originally
there was work being done to ship SLES, but that has fallen to the side
for the time being. I think the switch to RH was basically because that is
what customers wanted. While RH tries to only do security updates and
such for a particular release they do occasionally allow changes to creep
in that cause interface changes. I am guessing the main difference between
RHEL and CentOS is that you have a support contract with RH? I don't mind
RH as I have used it and FC along with many other distributions over the years.
