- make sure nsr\mm, nsr\index and nsr\res are on your linux-box (donno if
 mmrecov does that for you, otherwise copy them from your w2k-server)
- remove devices from pools

- delete and create jukebox necessary?
- very likely. SCSI-address is bound to be different. Legato isn't happy
when
 a jukebox is configured wrong...

Should do the trick (I think ;).
