2Temporarily disable Netlogon service on primary DC and see if 2nd DC processes authentication requests. – Volodymyr Molodets Nov 28 '12 at 09:37

You will have to monitor the DC long enough to determine if it’s being used or not. Here are a couple tools I suggest.
Use NetMon or Wireshark to capture network traffic. You can capture all inbound LDAP queries on a specific DC and build a list of source addresses.
You could try using AD Insight http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897539
