Hello All,

    I'm experimenting with the checkpoint service, and some things don't appear 
to work.

    The saCkptActiveReplicaSet and saCkptCheckpointSynchronize[Async] don't 
appear to work when the checkpoint has section numbers greater than around 5500.

    I've created a checkpoint with 7500 sections, each section being 1024 
bytes.  The checkpoint is co-located and the "active replica" bit is set.

    I can create and write all the sections.  And from another node I run 
saCkptCheckpointStatusGet, and the information all looks good.  Everything is 
there.  I see no errors from any CKPT API calls.

    The problem comes when I call saCkptActiveReplicaSet from this other node.  
After I do this, saCkptCheckpointStatusGet now returns all the same information 
except the number of sections is no longer 7500 but 0.  If I do this test with 
50,000 sections only about 3,000 entries get synced.  And iterating through the 
sections shows that there are only 3,000 sections.

    Calling saCkptCheckpointSynchronize[Async] in this situation has no effect, 
either.

    After looking through the code I see a comment in 
cpnd_evt_proc_ckpt_arep_set that says "/* ###TBD sync up is missing with old 
active if now this fellow is becoming active. */"  So, it doesn't appear that 
syncing is being done in the saCkptActiveReplicaSet, which it should be.

    Can someone comment?

    I'm going to fix this and post a patch unless someone else is already 
working on it, but I didn't see a bug for it.

Alex
