My bad: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Active_Directory_Sites

There is a switch --site="site name" we can add to our join command.
the whole example:

*samba-tool domain join samdom.example.com <http://samdom.example.com>
DC -Uadministrator --realm=samdom.example.com
<http://samdom.example.com> --site=MyDemoSite ...*

Thank you for that Samba team ;)
