Pretty much the *only* option for Linked Mode in 5.1 is a multi-site SSO as per Mohammed's recommendations.

You could technically install both VCs and have them use the same SSO, but then the question is where does that SSO reside, at the protected site (and is lost during disaster precluding using VC), or at the recovery site (and have all your main VC SSO interaction cross the WAN).

So multi-site SSO is the only option, really. 

But ask yourself how much you really need linked mode.  While I love it, and use it in my lab, there are lots of manual steps involved in using multisite SSO - i.e. any and every time you make any changes to your production site you'll need to export, copy, import SSO to the other half of the multisite instance.
