[Samba] Clusterered setup on a mix of arm64 and x86 - ctbd "Startup event failed"

[K Gopal Krishna]

Hello,

Is samba expected to run on a cluster/mixture of arm64 and x86 nodes? I was trying it out on a bunch of VMs (3 x86, 2 arm64) and ctdb fails on the arm64 nodes with “Startup event failed” and seems to kill samba with `systemctl stop —full smbd`. The samba version is consistent across all VMs: Samba version 4.13.4-git.187.5ad4708741a1.34-SUSE-oS15.0-x86_64

Additionally, it seems that the type of nodes that are added first work — if arm64 devices are added first to the cluster, samba starts on them just fine and the later added x86 nodes have samba fail to start. If both types of nodes are added at once, in my testing, samba starts on only the x86 nodes. 

Some ctdb logs:
