I'm afraid "crash" is an ambiguous term in this context.  Do you mean
the O/S panics or some equivalent event?  The solution would be to
simply reboot the machine, no?

Or do you mean that the hardware itself has broken such that you need to
replace it?  Wouldn't you just move the disks in the old machine to the
new one and boot that so that as far as the rest of the network is
concerned, the machine was simply rebooted?

Yes, I think so.  Although your scenario is not terribly clear for me.
