We've done it for Solaris but not Windows.  You basically do a fresh install
on your new OS, do a hardware config so you can see all the drives, and then
replace the catalog with the one you started with.

If your SAN architecture supports, I strongly suggest you clone or snapshot
the volume first so you have a known good restore point (yeah, on this
mailing list, we care about backups & recoveries :-)).
