We are running an older version (10.0.9) on Centos. When we first migrated that legacy system from HP-UX to RHE (don't recall the version) the primary issue was modifying scripts we had developed to handle printing. The data files and applications moved cleanly (had to run the conversion program for the changing endian). The system is only accessed for historical data now (with a couple exceptions), so when the hardware crashed last summer, we moved it to a virtual machine (VMware) running Centos. With that migration, we had to make a couple changes to the OS terminfo files (keypads wouldn't work right).
I don't recall any other major issues; but my memory file is static, and hasn't been resized in way too long!

I'm pretty certain that RedHat/Intel is supported. I *think* SuSE/Intel is *probably* supported. I certainly have the impression that SuSE is supported but it might be SuSE/390 for mainframes. I've also seen reports of it running on other linuxen, but installing it can be a pig. The RedHat options on the install don't necessarily work on other versions, and you might find yourself having to edit the install script (in particular the cpio options), or messing about with the runlevels to get the daemon to start by default.
