After DR migrate back to main datacenter

Hi,

Our customer had an outage at their location and we considering the options of how to bring them back online. Once the original location is back up, is there a solution how to bring the data back over with minimal downtime? I was thinking of setting up replication, I'm wondering if there is a different solution.

What kind of environment is this? vSphere? Would hosts in both locations be in the same vCenter? If yes, you could perform a Shared-Nothing vMotion back to the original location (depending on the bandwidth). Alternatively, you could set up a replication job to replicate to the original location and then perform a permanent failover (make sure to update your backup jobs to point to the new original VM).
