Hi

if/when you have this size of multisite cluster, I suppose that you have (or at least you should) some kind of automation like ansible to manage that cluster? If not you could follow up @inventsekar 's link to just add a new search peers to both site. But as I said usually you have some tools to manage multisite (also normal) indexer clusters to ensure that all nodes are identical.

i assume, you want to "add" 12 new indexer peers to the existing multisite indexer cluster.. Please check:

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.1.0/Indexer/Addclusterpeer
