How would you recover if that server were suddenly destroyed, let's say by a power supply failure that fried the motherboard and all the disks? If you can't bring up a machine on new, bare iron starting with nothing but your backups and a CD or USB stick with a recovery tool, you need to seriously reconsider your backup strategy.
The important data is backed up properly. I'm looking for a "quick fix" solution to clone the server as is. I'm pretty sure I can duplicate the setup for the license managers and intricate scripts, and what not. I'm just not too hot on spending a few weeks on this.
I'm aware of the fast - cheap - good pyramid. :-)
