This can be achieved w/o doing a "catalog recovery". You can copy/ftp all your 
policies and images over. You can move the databases over as well. I recently 
did a Windows 2003 R2 64-bit to Solaris 10 SPARC migration this way. (In fact a 
catalog recovery was not an option for me due to the architecture change) The 
library move is trivial. Move all media into a "standalone" state (not sure if 
this step is needed although i think its in the documentation - I have done 
several library moves w/o doing this in the past). I would then do a nbemmcmd 
-deletealldevices on the source system before moving over the EMM database. 
Once netbackup is up and running on the new system, attach the library and just 
configure it as a new library and re-inventory.

This procedure requires professional services unless you really understand the 
internals of netbackup. Support will not give you help with doing this. (at 
least this is what I was told) Since your going from windows to windows this 
might not be a requirement in your case.

Only thing I suggest is keep the hostname the same, especially if your doing 
the catalog recovery approach. Also catalog recovery might seem like a daunting 
task at first glance but its actually pretty reliable. I've done several in my 
time. As long as your catalog backup competed with a status 0 your good to go. 
(unless you have media failure) I would make sure and note the media ID's of 
your last few catalog backups to be safe.
