Replicate between NS20 and CX4-120

Question

Hi,
We currently run a Celerra NS20FC with iSCSI LUNS for our ESX environment. We are thinking of getting a Clariion CX4-120 to place in a different Data Centre (100km apart).
We would like to attach the servers directly to the CX4 with FC. The CX4 setup will also be a ESX environment. Is there a solution available to replicate between the two SANs for DR purposes? I don't mind if its Block-level or file-level.
We were told it could be done but are now told it cannot be done. We have dark fibre between the two data centres to use for transit.

Regards,
David

if ESX on both sides were connected via regular fibre switch then you could use MirrorView to replicate it but since you are using iSCSI through Celerra, you might have to look into using some third party ESX replication tools such as Veeam Backup.
