We use debian on our DL380 with no problems.  If you get the software from
HP you can just use alien to change the RPMs into DEBs.

HP have support for RHEL & SUSE, they announced recently support for
Debian.

What does it mean, well their software agents and customised drivers are
easily
installed on RHEL & SUSE.  For debian you have to pull them apart yourself
-
just source files compiled against the running kernel.
