Make sure master start block replication after slave's block
replication started.

Besides, we need to activate VM's blocks before goes into
COLO state.

In docs/block-replication.txt it says:
  b. replication_do_checkpoint_all()
   This interface is called after all VM state is transferred to
   Secondary QEMU. The Disk buffer will be dropped in this interface.
   The caller must hold the I/O mutex lock if it is in migration/checkpoint
   thread.

but we're making this call before the call below that actually transfers
all the state.  Which is right?

Other than that I think it's OK.

Hi Dave,

The "docs/block-replication.txt" means we should call the
replication_do_checkpoint_all() after VM state is transferred in secondary
node,
and in primary node this function no need to call before transfers all the
state.

Thanks

OK, it might be worth clarifying the docs.
