    Install Memcached on Fedora

    Memcached is available under default Fedora repositories. You can install it by running the following command on your Fedora Linux system.

    sudo dnf install memcached -y
    

    Now start the Memcached service using the following commands.

    sudo systemctl enable memcached.service 
    sudo systemctl start memcached.service 
    

    Memcached Configuration

    Edit the Memcached default configuration file in your favorite text editor.

    sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/memcached
    

    and update the settings as per your system requirements. Here CACHESIZE is the max memory limit in Mb, which Memcached can use.

     PORT="11211"
     USER="memcached"
     MAXCONN="1024"
     CACHESIZE="64"
     OPTIONS=""
    

    The above configuration shows that Memcached can use up to 64 Mb memory on the system.

    After doing any changes, restart the Memcached server to apply changes.

    sudo systemctl restart memcached.service
    

    View Memcached Stats

    You can view the service status using the systemctl command

    sudo systemctl status memcached.service
    

    You can also view the statics of the running Memcached service using “stats settings” command. Below is the example to send this command to the Memcached server and see the results.

    echo "stats settings" | nc localhost 11211
    
    STAT maxbytes 67108864
    STAT maxconns 1024
    STAT tcpport 11211
    STAT udpport 11211
    STAT inter 127.0.0.1
    STAT verbosity 0
    STAT oldest 0
    STAT evictions on
    STAT domain_socket NULL
    STAT umask 700
    STAT growth_factor 1.25
    STAT chunk_size 48
    STAT num_threads 4
    STAT num_threads_per_udp 4

    STAT maxconns_fast no
    STAT hashpower_init 0
    STAT slab_reassign no
    STAT slab_automove 0
    END
