There is no magical way to say it will or will not work.
It will require human eyes, brains and time, even possible lab conditions
Perhaps even a rewrite if possible, since 500+ scripts sure sounds like a design fail.
Perhaps consolidate those scripts first, then do the porting ....
First install ksh:
should install the AT&T ksh93, that is quite compatible with the ksh88 in Solaris 10.
Then syntax-check your scripts with
Most should pass.
Also most most GNU standard tools ("ls", "find", "grep", "sed", "awk","perl") are compatible with Unix.
But be careful - especially when running as root - better run the scripts as non-root so a run-away script cannot damage your system.
When it comes to OS-specific things there is less compatibility. E.g. a "df -k" can work, but a simple "df" is quite different.

Hi Oracle Linux users,
You can probably guess from the title what the question is:
Does anyone know if Oracle Linux (the Unbreakable variety I think that is) comes in a
SPARC release or, if not, will there be one some time soon ?
Many thanks,

Hiya,
Is there a known method from converting LVM data to VxVM data..
ie we have a load of local and SAN (HPDM) mounts on RHEL 4u5/5u1 servers which are now required to be clustered with SFS (VxFS,VxVM,CFS,VCS etc)
I've come across the vxvmconvert, but thought that was HP-UX only?
