On the SPARC 20, are you running Sun OS or Solaris? If you're running Solaris, you most likely won't encounter problems with your programs. I've moved Pro*C programs from one platform to the other without even rebuilding, and everything worked fine.

Oracle 7.1.6, 7.2.2, 7.2.3, 7.3.2.1, and 7.3.2.2 are certified on Sun Solaris 2.5 and 2.51.

Make sure you're sitting when you run your programs for the first time on the UltraSPARC.....you won't believe the dramatic performance increase.
