Hi again Alberto,
With systemd it will be as easy as creating additional unit files ( one for each memcached instance) with its corresponding config file. That should allow to stop / start / restart each memcache instance individually while also being systemd compliant.
I just wanted to say thank you again for your advice. Worked like a charm!
[root@web1:~] #systemctl start memcached.service
[root@web1:~] #lsof -i :11211 | head -5 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME memcached 20604 memcached 26u IPv4 10415567 0t0 TCP *:memcache (LISTEN) memcached 20604 memcached 27u IPv6 10415568 0t0 TCP *:memcache (LISTEN) memcached 20604 memcached 28u IPv4 10415571 0t0 UDP *:memcache memcached 20604 memcached 29u IPv4 10415571 0t0 UDP *:memcache

I ran my demonstration on ports 11211 and 11212 as you can see above. I really appreciate the info you've provided and have stored that in my notes for myself and others to use.
Best regards, Tim

Thanks for the info and for the examples. It really does make sense the way you explain it. Thanks for letting me know!

Now, under CentOS 7, I see we have two files controlling memcached under the new sysctl system. At least, using sysctl is new to me!
I see we have this file:
[root@web1:~] #cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached.service [Unit] Description=Memcached Before=httpd.service After=network.target
[Service] Type=simple EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/memcached ExecStart=/usr/bin/memcached -u $USER -p $PORT -m $CACHESIZE -c $MAXCONN $OPTIONS
[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
And we have this one under sysconfig:
[root@web1:~] #cat /etc/sysconfig/memcached PORT="11211" USER="memcached" MAXCONN="1024" CACHESIZE="64" OPTIONS=""
So I'm trying to figure out how to achive the same effect that I would under the old init script way of doing things.
Can someone please give me an example of how to get the same thing done under the new system?
As you said earlier on earlier ( non-systemd) versions of the memcached init scripts, you would define all instances of memcache under the start function.
With systemd it will be as easy as creating additional unit files ( one for each memcached instance) with its corresponding config file. That should allow to stop / start / restart each memcache instance individually while also being systemd compliant.
Examples:
## first instance ## # /usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached.service [Unit] Description=Memcached Before=httpd.service After=network.target
[Service] Type=simple EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/memcached ExecStart=/usr/bin/memcached -u $USER -p $PORT -m $CACHESIZE -c $MAXCONN $OPTIONS
# /etc/sysconfig/memcached PORT="11211" USER="memcached" MAXCONN="1024" CACHESIZE="64" OPTIONS="" ## end first instance
## second instance ##
## second instance ## # /usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached-11214.service [Unit] Description=Memcached-11214 Before=httpd.service After=network.target
[Service] Type=simple EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/memcached-11214 ExecStart=/usr/bin/memcached -u $USER -p $PORT -m $CACHESIZE -c $MAXCONN $OPTIONS
# /etc/sysconfig/memcached-11214 PORT="11214" USER="memcached" MAXCONN="1024" CACHESIZE="64" OPTIONS="" ## end second instance
Lastly enable each service if not already enabled: # instance 1 systemctl enable /usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached.service systemctl start memcached.service
# instance 2 systemctl enable /usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached-11214.service systemctl start memcached-11214.service
You can also still use legacy sysv init scripts as there is support for backwards compatibility however the systemd approach is much simpler while adhering to the systemd standard.
Good luck. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
