Not quite true. ZD&T only supports RHEL and Ubuntu as that is what the 
installer checks for. If you look at the current Redbook for zPDT you will see 
that the installer contains:

The Red Hat (RHEL, Fedora) version of zPDT.
The Novell (SLES, openSUSE) version of zPDT
The Ubuntu version of zPDT.

If you look at the chapter on releases you will see where they tested and 
although there are formal and informal test, OpenSUSE is informally tested and 
then again, zPDT doesn't have any support anyway so theoretically, if you can 
get it working, you can run it on any Linux distro. I personally primarily only 
use OpenSUSE but did try CentOS which was fine until they became a rolling 
release (like Tumbleweed) and Ubuntu was just rubbish. I'm currently running 
some RHEL systems which seem to be fine as well.
