Question Unix to LINUX

quick question that may bring long answers Smilie
I am currently looking into porting an existing Recital system from Unix to Linux. possibly not a good idea Smilie Basically;
Would i be better shooting myself in the foot now? or
do you know if there would be a fair expense due to buying Linux and the necessary REcital programs?
Is it true that I will have to recompile all the code under Recital Linux in order to run it?
Does Linux 'work' in a similar way to Unix with File Systems, and Logical Volumes?

Any advice would be welcome, including 'dont do it!' Smilie
cheers all
Kuz

NAME
lvscan - scan (all disks) for Logical Volumes SYNOPSIS
lvscan [-a|--all] [-b|--blockdevice] [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [--ignorelockingfailure] [-P|--partial] [-v|--verbose] DESCRIPTION
lvscan scans all known volume groups or all supported LVM block devices in the system for defined Logical Volumes. The output consists of one line for each Logical Volume indicating whether or not it is active, a snapshot or origin, the size of the device and its allocation policy. Use lvs(8) or lvdisplay(8) to obtain more-comprehensive information about the Logical Volumes. OPTIONS
See lvm for common options. --all Include information in the output about internal Logical Volumes that are components of normally-accessible Logical Volumes, such as mirrors, but which are not independently accessible (e.g. not mountable). For example, after creating a mirror using 'lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog disk', this option will reveal three internal Logical Volumes, with suffixes mimage_0, mimage_1, and mlog. -b, --blockdevice This option is now ignored. Instead, use lvs(8) or lvdisplay(8) to obtain the device number. SEE ALSO
