What to do first: Cluster Indexers, then Upgrade Linux, or upgrade Linux, then cluster indexers?

We have 2 indexers (one site) that are running on Redhat 6.2 that we want to upgrade to 6.7 for security reasons. We also want to cluster them. Should we cluster first, then upgrade the OS on one indexer at a time, or upgrade them, then cluster them? Which is less risky? Currently, all our forwarders are configured so they can send to both Indexers, like so: [tcpout] defaultGroup = default-autolb-group [tcpout:default-autolb-group] server = 10.1.1.2:9997 , 10.1.1.3:9997 useACK=true [tcpout-server://10.1.1.2:9997] [tcpout-server://10.1.1.3:9997] So either way, stopping one indexer should make the forwarders send to the other indexers, cluster or no cluster, am I right? The only difference I can see is if we cluster first, search results would not be impacted during our maintenance window. So, what say thee?
