It'll be a bit tedious, but it might be beneficial to look at a tcpdump
trace of the connection traffic to see what's happening.

BackupManager doesn't replicate to the whole cluster, it replicates each
session to one designated backup node.  It does replicate the map of
where all the sessions are to the whole cluster, however.

Maybe it's the latter which is a problem.

OK.  Let us know.
