Are there any known issues, guidelines, or recommendations for having
a single RHCS cluster with different OS releases on the nodes?

Only one answer.. don't do it. It's not supported and it's only asking
for troubles.

Seconded. There are _substantial_ differences between Centos/RHEL 5
and 6 clustering.<br>
<br>
You can run one or the other OS, but you can't mix them. The on-disk
format isn't affected.<br>
<br>
Best path is to setup a cluster in 6, shut down the 5 cluster,
attach disks to the 6 cluster and bring it all back up. The 5 boxes
can be converted to version 6 afterwards.<br>
<br>
(I'm going through this at the moment, as I have 2 EL5 clusters and
1 EL6 cluster.)<br>
<br>
TAKE NOTE: RHEL/CentOS6 clustering is not quite ready for
prime-time - if you enable GFS2 quotas and someone busts his quota
the machine will panic.<br>
