I have worked with both redhat and suse on this platform and i seem to like suse better. Suse seems to have betters tools to get the job done in my opinion. Plus suse has a good backer with novell and ibm.

I am trying to locate information on which flavor of Linux is best suited for various types of deployments. I have looked in the archives but cannot seem to find specifics addressing this. Can someone point me to specific doc and/or personal opinions on whether SUSE or RedHat or some other distribution is better suited for a zSeries deployment ? Regards, Paul Paul A.
