Is your CPU architecture changing? Do the RHEL packages for BackupPC
include the rrdtool graph patches as in Debian? IE - do you see a pretty
graph showing pool capacity over time on the BackupPC summary page?

If so, beware of the rrdtool architecture dependency. i386 -> amd64
requires exporting the data before and after.

Otherwise, no. Restore /etc/backuppc and /var/lib/backuppc (or wherever you
keep the data), and you should be fine.
