How to calculate disk space by all indexers used by the data model acceleration?

The total size of your datamodel acceleration is presented nicely by the web UI on any search head member in your cluster.
Settings > Datamodels > All >

Then expand the row for the datamodel you want to find info about. The "Size on Disk" is what I believe you are looking for, and this number represents the total size, across all indexers.

I used | rest "/services/admin/introspection--disk-objects--summaries?count=-1" | stats sum(total_size) by name | addcoltotals

But I can see two datamodel for the same name

  1. DataModel_A
  2. DataModel_A.ObjectName

I can see DataModel_A taking space which is shown in the UI disk space.
DataModel_A.ObjectName is taking a huge space. But the same i cannot see in any of the path in the server.

Can aynone help me in this?

Try adding | search type="data_model_acceleration" to search query

On the indexers, It is stored in $SPLUNK_HOME/var/lib/splunk/index_name/datamodel_summary, where "index_name" is the name of the index from which the datamodel is collecting data.

yes.. checked the same.. When i check inside datamodel_summary it is taking 20 GB. But I can see there is an increase of 200 GB in the server. So, when i check with the rest query which i posted in the question, it is showing 200 GB, but the same i cannot see in the server.

So, I am confused!
