How it is possible to reflect workbench changes on clustered environment

Question

Hi All,
I am running endeca on MachineA and MachineB with separate MDEX engine.
Cluster dgraph is implemented on MachineA with MachineB, thus data will updated on machineB when i run baseline update on MachineA.
I have installed Experience Manager on MachineA and created some pages using Workbench.
The rules are getting fired for MachineA without baseline update, but i noticed that same are not working for MachineB even though both machines are in cluster.
When i run baseline update on MachineA rules are working with MachineB.
How it is possible to reflect workbench changes on both clustered MDEX engine without running baseline update.
Please share your suggestion.
Thanks in Advance,
SunilN

Hi Guys,
I have tried to both approaches which you have suggested me.
But still the rules are not fired for MachineB.
I have tested it endeca_jspref on MachineB it the rules are not getting reflected for MachineB.
Below is my MachineA AppConfig.xml file :
