Hi all
I'm RHCDS (Redhat certified data center specialist) and I really recommend
it, reinstall your machines, configure again (only restore the confs could
be a problem) and after that, install the products, update OS ..., your
environment will be better doing this, if you upgrade these systems (major
release - 5 to 6), you will probably find problems.

Cheers
Waldirio
