yes -- several times -- The best advice I can offer is:

Take backups
Remove conflicting packages as possible
Do a piecewise upgrade of the kernel, glibc and rpm first
Then do the rest.

see generally:

and
  http://www.owlriver.com/tips/centos-31-ex-rhl-9/
(this latter path is a 'harder' path than RHAS21 to RHEL3)
