I would have expected to see:

samba-tool domain join example.ru DC --server=srv-dc01.example.ru
--username=vas.lah --password=password --realm=EXAMPLE.RU --site=SITE2

Without the 'DC' you will end up with a 'MEMBER' and they do not

Is the DC, that you are trying to join to, running a DNS server ?
