  2. Go to  http://aemhost:port/miscadmin and copy the out-of-the-box Dispatcher Flush agent as many times as needed and modify (set with the IP of each dispatcher).

    General => Enabled
    Transport => http://10.43.32.126/dispatcher/invalidate.cache
    Triggers => Check these boxes: Ignore Default, No Status Update, No Versioning
     
    dispatcher2
    General => Enabled
    Transport => http://10.43.32.146/dispatcher/invalidate.cache
    Triggers => Check these boxes: Ignore Default, No Status Update, No Versioning
