 Hello all;

I have join a new domain controller [gtmad2](Ubuntu with samba4 version 4.14.8) to a Samba4 Domain (main DC version 4.14.3 in CentOS8)[gtmad1].
 I want to replace the samba-4.14.3 (CentOS8)[host name gtmad1] and I have  transferered the FSMO roles to the new one samba-4.14.8 (Ubuntu 20.04)[hostname gtmad2]

 Here the transfer commands:

root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=rid             
FSMO transfer of 'rid' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=pdc
FSMO transfer of 'pdc' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=infrastructure
FSMO transfer of 'infrastructure' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=schema        
FSMO transfer of 'schema' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=naming
FSMO transfer of 'naming' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=domaindns -UAdministrator
Password for [ATGTM00\Administrator]:
FSMO transfer of 'domaindns' role successful
root at gtmad2:~# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=forestdns -UAdministrator
Password for [ATGTM00\Administrator]:
FSMO transfer of 'forestdns' role successful

 All transfer were successful, but when I check I have a problem. 
 From the new DC [gtmad2] still look the other DC [gtmad1] as owner of the FSMO roles and from gtmad1 it look to gtmad2 like the FSMO roles owner.
