I have a Win2003 server running NW 7.5.2. We will be upgrading this 
machine from Win2003 (32bit) to Win2008  (64bit) - by re-formatting the 
boot drive, and installing clean; not an upgrade in place. I was looking 
through the Networker Procedure Generator, and that doesn't seem to be a 
scenario that is covered (i.e., upgrade from 32bit to 64 on same hardware, 
while maintaining all history). The server will have the same name and IP 
address as before.

Do I need to do a modified sort of disaster recovery - i.e., full 
bootstrap and CFI backup; re-format and install Win2008. Install NW, and 
run a mmrecov, then a "nsrck -L7"?  Does that work 32bit to 64bit - they 
are just NW data files, right, not binary executables?

Or should I do a save of the /res, /index and /mm folders, and replace 
them after installing the new 64bit NW?

I don't care about any other data from the old server; we're going to 
re-install all applications, etc from scratch. The only thing I want to 
bring over is the NW history. I need that history. :-)
