IDEALLY, we'd just use NetAPP SnapMirror between the sites to keep the SAN volumes in sync and leave the DR site powered down unless needed (the machines are virtualised anyway). However, some bright spark decided to run this system on a non-standard (read: cheap and nasty) SAN that doesn't talk to NetAPP. Another stellar decision from the top that results in we poor peons scrambling to meet deadlines for audit requirements that wouldn't have existed if they'd LISTENED to those who knew better. Bah - corporate ignorance!
