==Setting Up a Multi Instance Memcached Configuration==

Lets first get the basic memcached instance installed

 yum install memcached

Now lets create home for the memcached instance files
 mkdir /etc/memcached-multi

Now lets create to instances the default 11211 and 11212 ports

 vim memcached_11211

And add the following to the memcached_11211

 PORT="11211"
 USER="memcached"
 MAXCONN="1028"
 CACHESIZE="64"
 OPTIONS=""

Then copy that to memcached_11212 file
 cat memcached_11211 > memcached_11212

Edit the new file

 vim memcached_11212

Change the file to following, adjusting the port

 PORT="11212"
 USER="memcached"
 MAXCONN="1028"
 CACHESIZE="64"
 OPTIONS=""
