As jgt already mentionned, we dont have much info on what /what extent you are moving what from mainframe to unix, COBOL is just the language used to program.... when I had to do the migration from OS/3 (Unisys) to unix, it was not the Cobol the pain ( I am not saying it was easy...) but I because of time limit had a port 1 to 1 ( make a unix box work and look like a mainframe...) I realized that I had no idea how transaction monitors worked, having just a little experience with Tuxedo...
my last port I did was stopped at 80% for political reasons, I opted for a version of open-cobol... Worked well many tools for conversion of data structure etc... but like the previous getting a transation monitor working means being able to emulate the screen the application uses/used on mainframe can be quite a challenging task... In other words you need a team to work on that in parallel...
