Hello all

in previous version of keycloak, there was a specific “cache” tab in the realm admin page but now it is no longer available.  
Is there a way to clean it? I have a strange behaviour that I cannot understand and I suspect that a custom authenticator config value has not been updated on one of the server nodes.  
I already verified directly in the DB that the setting is correct.
