SyncIQ and SmartQuotas

How exactly should SmartQuotas be treated in SyncIQ enabled Cluster pairs?

From what I read, one should only have SmartQuotas enabled on the SyncIQ source cluster, right? It is strongly recommended to not have any SmartQuotas enabled on the target cluster that point to SyncIQ target directories.

Does this imply that during/after SyncIQ failover, one  must delete the SmartQuotas on the source cluster? Because, during the time that the SyncIQ target cluster is used as production cluster, the original source cluster becomes the temporary target cluster...

Real world procedure would be:

1. Initiate SyncIQ failover tasks

2. Delete SmartQuotas on source cluster

3. Configure SmartQuotas on target cluster (if desired)

4. Run production on target cluster until ready for failback

5. Initiate SyncIQ failback tasks

6. Delete SmartQuotas on target cluster (if configured in 3.)

7. Configure SmartQuotas on source cluster

8. Run production on source cluster
