Backup Exec automatically take a backup of it's own configuration and saves it in DATA folder present in installation directory. CATALOGS folder will have the catalog details for all the backups taken. Create a backup job and choose DATA and CATALOGS folder to be backedup.
Note: I personally feel taking a manual copy of those folders to network share or any USB drive is better. Incase of any disaster it would be easy to copy these folders back to new installation as tape library/drive configuration is not required to do the recovery of backup exec.

Hi Kiran,
DATA and CATALOGS folder only enaugh for the recover full details from the backup server.(If backup server crashed, after we installed new one and paste the above mentioned 2 folders in same location, it's working properly or need some config. in new server). Pls explain those those of things.

Yes, those two folders are enough for the recovery.
After installing BE, stop the services. Paste the contents of old catalogs folder to new catalogs folder. Use BEutility tool (can be found under installation directory) to apply the old configuration on new installation.

Search for Besernum.xml file in the media server.
Also if you have the printed BE serail numbers, you can simply enter the keys during the fresh installation.
