I have done it in the past, you need to do a cold
backup of the NBU catalog (5.1 allows only cold
backup) and then use bprecover -dhost to recover the
databases. I did it twice, no issues. I personally
don't see a need to involve consulting in it, only
difference is that they have done it once or twice (or
have access to docs) and you haven't.
Good Luck.
