When a member is stopped, the
super_read_only
variable is set to on automatically, but this change is not persisted.When MySQL 5.7.22 or MySQL 8.0.11 tries to join a group running MySQL 5.7.21 or lower it fails to join the group because MySQL 5.7.21 does not send its value of
lower_case_table_names
