Your questions a bit vague to give a specific answer. But generally speaking, If it is just an OS update (not SQL) then after the SQL server is installed you copy the detached database from one server, copy the files over to the other server and reattach them. If the SQL is upgraded as well then you can do the same, but you should use an upgrade tool to show any possible issues. (if any)
