That's true, I had forgotten you could do that. At any rate, I'd rather run a "supported" version if it makes my life easier.
I really like the appliance version, it's very straightforward and doesn't require messing around with administering yet another server.
Of course your mileage may vary depending on preferences.
By the way if you're feeling a bit brave, check out the release candidate for version 6.3 of OCUM, there's some pretty slick feature enhancements:

Hi Scott,
I can't remember if it was this or OCUM 6.x, but I just changed the /etc/redhat-release file to match what a rhel system would have and the install worked.
I was running CentOS 6.7.
I only went to the VMware appliance for performance manager because I knew NetApp wouldn't give me any support if I needed it once they found out it was CentOS.
Ended up putting OCUM Windows (instead of VMware appliance, or CentOS for above reason) so I could get at the cli for it.
Turns out it wasn't worth it.

Hello,
I'm trying to install OnCommand® Performance Manager on a freshly installed CentOS 6.7 machine. Has anyone done this? or is RHEL the only linux distro supported?
