Looking at switching over from vmware and need to stand up a kvm install, I really would like to wait for rhel6 but not sure when it may show up....but what I would like to know what is the latest KVM that I can run with 5.5 and what are the best management tools to use, I looked at the wiki but it also referenced the redhat doc's....would like to run the para virt drivers if possible....any information would be great, Thanks...:)

Run the qemu-kvm version included with CentOS and use the KVM modules included in the default CentOS kernel - these versions are tweaked to work the best in CentOS/RHEL.
what are the best management tools to use, I looked at the wiki but it also referenced the redhat doc's....
Use the official ones, virsh (console) and virt-manager (graphical).
For documentation, use the RHEL Virtualization guide at: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Virtualiza...
