Samba seems to like to remove computer-accounts.

I noticed that a computer-account gets removed when the domain join 
fails. It sounds logical when the join create the account. But 
pre-provisioned computer-accounts are also removed on a failing join...

Is there a similar switch to prevent that behaviour?
