View DR with Replica Connection Broker

We are wanting to have some DR in our View environment and was thinking that if I have a Connection Broker in each of our Data Centers one being the "Primary" and the other one being a Replica. So that in the event either sites going down we would point users to the other Connection Broker and VDI pools within that DC.

Does that sounds like a plausible idea to anyone? Or how does everyone handle DR for different DC's.

Cheers

Prior to View 6 having connection brokers spread out across different datacenters would not be supported.   Now that View 6 is out you can utilize the pod architecture to accomplish a form of DR for the environment.

Thanks mittim12 have had a look at the pod architecture and it look like it will fit exactly with the requirements that we have and the infrastructure that we were going to put into place.
