OVMS to Unix migration

We are investigating migrating our current PH application from an OVMS box to
Unix.  At a recent conference a collegue had several discussions with people
who had gone through similar migrations.  Does anyone out there have
documentation on steps for migrating?  Several items we need to address:

- We have lots of DCL.  I have to assume that it is better to emulate than try
to recode everything.
- We use RMS.  All of our data is in RMS files.  How much is lost by going
with RMS emulators?  What about migrating to an RDB?
- How much other functionality is lost?
- What about recompiling existing PH code?  Painful?  Easy?

Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Tom Scroggins
