You have the ability to bring up a server in a "bubble" for testing. This way you can show your admins how the failover process will work.

vSphere with Operations Management has a much better way of automating the re-IPing of servers so you can stand them up in a different environment or location. You do, however, need another way of replicating your servers to your DR site, VSOM will not do that. We used EMC Recover Point for replication.
