Well if money is no object and you really want a DR solution then the best in my humble opinion is to have a dual node VCS global HA/DR cluster between the two sites and configure NBU as a cluster resource. This also assumes you have libraries and or storage devices with like media drives so that in the event of a disaster of your primary site, you can recall your media and place it in the library in the DR site. This way your NBU catalog is as good as the last replication cycle of the VCS. If you are using strictly disk between the sites with cross replication then of course you are as good as the last replication cycle there as well. But truthfully the best DR solution is one that's right for your companies business requirements and if that's what you seek you should spend the $$ for proper consulting with NBU. Or I bet Curtis could be hired for the right price ;-)
