Just browsing IBM's site found the following:
http://www-03 (See http://www-03.ora-code.com).ibm.com/servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/nos/redchata.html
It's typically best to find the certifications from the hardware
vendor's site, but watch out for proprietary driver disks. For example,
Sun says their Gigaswift Fiber Gigabit card is certified with RHEL. In
actuality, it's certified by them and it requires you to download a
tarball and compile on your Linux host. :-( If you run into issues
with that card, Red Hat will not help.

If you visit http://www.redhat.com/rhel/compare/server/, look at
subscript #3.
