If I remove the export=  the secondary starts, but then when I issue the 
child_add
on the primary I get the error:

Server requires an export name

on the secondary I had done:

(qemu) nbd_server_start :8889
(qemu) nbd_server_add -w colo1

Can you please confirm your exact command line and sequence needed with this 
7.2 set please.

My only problem is the way that 'backing' is repeated 3 times; that seems
odd!
