Unless they are able to off load the saves to tape and ship those to you. Still more than 24 hours before you start the recovery.

Ideally you are correct, one copy at your location and replicated copy at a remote site. That remote site should also be a hot site, that has power systems ready to reload in the event of a failure, ideally with the LIC loaded and disk already initialized. Agile (my company) , and some other folks maintain multiple POWER systems that sit ready for a recovery in just such an emergency. Now you can be up and running a bit quicker, albeit with a remote system, and take your time rebuilding your system in a more relaxed fashion.

What's important is what are the RTO and RPO (Recovery Time Objective and Recovery Point Objective) that you need. Then build the backup platforms and systems to support those objectives.

a full system restore across the wire.
