CIFS REPLICATION DR SCENARIO

I have a CIFS file system defined on NS20 which is getting replicated to a remote EMC. Now we have a Disaster Recovery scenario, for a few hours we would like to make the remote file system as Read/Write and source file system as Read. After the DR test we have to revert the replication to its original state.

What is the correct procedure using Celerra console? Which option is most suitable, is it Reverse/Failover/Switchover?

Is there any data loss/issues with these kind of tests?

    Are you going to write to DR copy and retain those changes ?

    The users will definitely make write operation but retaining those change may be optional since it's a test. What are the possible options and level of difficulty involved?
