Hi,

 

You can configure both pools, and create all the configuration for both datacenter

 

  • VLAN + Self DC1
  • VLAN + Self DC2
  • Listeners DC1 & DC2
  • Links DC1 & DC2
  • Servers + VS DC1 & DC2
  • Pool containing VS DC1 & DC2

If only DC1 link available, only DC1 pool members are answered

 

When you move GTM on DC2, Link DC2 become available, only DC2 pool members are answered

 

but it is really a strange DR! a simple Bind on both sites will do the same.
