Data guard build out

Production Environment:

OEL 5.4 Oracle RAC - Clusterware and DB 11.2.0.3

Question:

Currently DR site is matching exact OS version as Production. I am in the process of rebuilding the DR environment (data guard in physical standby).

Are there any benefits, risks and potential issues in building the new DR environment in OEL 6.4?

Both OEL 5.4 and 6.4 are certified with Oracle 11.2.0.3.

At some point in future production will be upgraded, but I foresee that it will go to a new stack of servers with 12c and OEL 7.x.

Thanks much in advance
