The bigger concern would be that CentOS is not supported by Oracle (as far
as I know). If they created an SR and Oracle support found out they were on
centos then they could balk on providing any help.

One of my client's SysAdmins wants to move their Oracle 11.2.0.1 DB from
RHEL 5 to a version of CentOS (5?). I have never done his kind of thing. I
googled but couldn't find anything definitive.
I'm wondering if the database files, etc. can be moved and brought up
under the new CentOS, or if I have to move it through RMAN or the like. Is
it an in place upgrade? Will the binaries need re-installed or re-linked?
This is new to me.
Does anyone have some pointers/ articles / MOS posts/ support pages to
which they can direct me?
Thanks, all.
