Testing Restore

I have been busy all the last week with testing our backup/restore software if its really working, we are using hp data protector and it is really a great product for backup and recovery, we were able to restore (applications and Database around 350GB) successfully, we also restored our other 4 production databases (each one around 300 GB) successfully, also our network guys were able to restore our email/file system servers successfully. The only issue we faced was the time, it needs a lot of time to restore for ex. to restore the apps and db (350GB) it took around 6-8 hours, so the management decided that we should have a disaster recovery site (just incase we needed it) and that will be our next project.
