We chose SuSE originally based on license/maintenance costs. (Our
management demands contracted support.) We later switched to RedHat since
Oracle supports running on RedHat but not on SuSE. Since we only want to
support one distro, we went with RedHat.

IMHO, SuSE seems to be more zSeries friendly.
Some differences:
- SuSE SLES8 allows the hertz timer to be turned on or
off, depending on whether your are under VM or not.
RedHat RHEL3 does not - hence you may have a
performance issue with RedHat under VM with "idle"
machines.
- Redhat does not r
