Re: Any issues with glibc rpm package
if you are doing software development on rhel, this is a very important issue.
Here is what I'm running.
[root@prottervm ~]# rpm -qa | grep glibc
glibc-common-2.5-49.el5_5.2
glibc-devel-2.5-49.el5_5.2
glibc-headers-2.5-49.el5_5.2
glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.2
You can update using rhn or yum and be reasonably assured nothing will be broken. In fact things might work better.
To be save, use acronis, mondorescue.org or clonezilla to save a copy of the system for restore in case things go bad.

Solutionadd "tsflags=repackage" to /etc/yum.conf and
"%_repackage_all_erasures 1" to /etc/rpm/macros
then use yum to install your updated GLIBC packages, then if you need to rollback use
rpm -Uvh --rollback '1 hour ago' (adjust the time to whatever suits you.

Re: Any issues with glibc rpm package
Let me add that instead of upgrading just GLIBC i'd rather consider upgrading the OS to RedHat 5.3 or higher. RH 5.1 is way too old, any you might want to check if there is something for you in the multiple improvements offered by any newer version.
Let me know if you need help with that.!

Re: Any issues with glibc rpm package
I have plenty of experience upgrading these setups, normally you would only need to upgrade the oracleasm packages to match the new kernel version, that should be enough to make oracle work correctly under then new OS version.
