What is the problem you are trying to solve by upgrading ?

One of the benefits of RHEL is the longer upgrade cycle. One of the others is the application and hardware vendor support. RHEL 4 will likely not have that support for some time. For example, RAID cards, HBAs, Oracle, Plesk/Ensim/cPanel. Unless your application has a compelling reason to upgrade now rather than a few years down the line when your hardware needs replacing also, consider the risk:reward ratio.

Has anyone done this yet?
At work, we have 2 RHEL 3 ES servers.
We are trying to decide whether to upgrade or do a fresh install, reconfigure.
Personally, I prefer to do a fresh install, and configure as needed.
However, since we are happy with the current configuration, an upgrade probably makes more sense.
I would appreciate opinions on this subject.
