Christian Berendt c71296175f Unified the syntax of the XML root element (high-availability-guide)
The XML root element of Docbook XML files should match the following
format:

<ELEMENT xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
  xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
  version="5.0"
  xml:id="THE_XML_ID_OF_THE_ELEMENT">

<title>Memcached</title>
<para>Most of OpenStack services use an application to offer persistence and store ephemeral data (like tokens).
Memcached is one of them and can scale-out easily without specific trick.</para>
<para>To install and configure it, read the <link xlink:href="http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/NewStart">official documentation</link>.</para>
<para>Memory caching is managed by oslo-incubator so the way to use multiple memcached servers is the same for all projects.</para>
<para>Example with two hosts:</para>
<programlisting>memcached_servers = controller1:11211,controller2:11211</programlisting>
<para>By default, controller1 handles the caching service but if the host goes down, controller2 does the job.
For more information about memcached installation, see the OpenStack
Cloud Administrator Guide.</para>
