In my experience this has been really simply.  Just stop services on View composer, backup database, restore to different SQL server, and finally change your ODBC on the View composer server to point to the new SQL server.   The events DB is really the same thing and you just have to point the new SQL server in in the configuration page located in the View Admin portal.
