  <para>
   <function>Memcache::addServer</function> adds a server to the connection 
   pool. The connection, which was opened using <function>Memcache::addServer</function> 
   will be automatically closed at the end of script execution, you can also close it 
   manually with <function>Memcache::close</function>. 
   You can also use the <function>memcache_add_server</function> function.
  </para>
  
  <para>
   When using this method (as opposed to <function>Memcache::connect</function> and 
   <function>Memcache::pconnect</function>) the network connection is not established 
   until actually needed. Thus there is no overhead in adding a large number of servers 
   to the pool, even though they might not all be used.
  </para>
  
  <para>
   Failover may occur at any stage in any of the methods, as long as other 
   servers are available the request the user won't notice. Any kind of 
   socket or Memcached server level errors (except out-of-memory) may trigger 
   the failover. Normal client errors such as adding an existing key will not 
   trigger a failover.
  </para>

  <note>
   <para>
    This function has been added to Memcache version 2.0.0.

  <para>
   <variablelist>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>host</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Point to the host where memcached is listening for connections. This parameter
       may also specify other transports like <literal>unix:///path/to/memcached.sock</literal>
       to use UNIX domain sockets, in this case <parameter>port</parameter> must also
       be set to <literal>0</literal>.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>port</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Point to the port where memcached is listening for connections.
       This parameter is optional and its default value is 11211. Set this
       parameter to <literal>0</literal> when using UNIX domain sockets.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>persistent</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Controls the use of a persistent connection. Default to &true;.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>weight</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Number of buckets to create for this server which in turn control its
       probability of it being selected. The probability is relative to the
       total weight of all servers.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>timeout</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Value in seconds which will be used for connecting to the daemon. Think
       twice before changing the default value of 1 second - you can lose all
       the advantages of caching if your connection is too slow.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>retry_interval</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Controls how often a failed server will be retried, the default value
       is 15 seconds. Setting this parameter to -1 disables automatic retry. 
       Neither this nor the <parameter>persistent</parameter> parameter has any 
       effect when the extension is loaded dynamically via <function>dl</function>.
      </para>
      <para>
       Each failed connection struct has its own timeout and before it has expired 
       the struct will be skipped when selecting backends to serve a request. Once 
       expired the connection will be successfully reconnected or marked as failed 
       for another <parameter>retry_interval</parameter> seconds. The typical 
       effect is that each web server child will retry the connection about every
       <parameter>retry_interval</parameter> seconds when serving a page.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>status</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Controls if the server should be flagged as online. Setting this parameter
       to &false; and <parameter>retry_interval</parameter> to -1 allows a failed 
       server to be kept in the pool so as not to affect the key distribution 
       algoritm. Requests for this server will then failover or fail immediatly 
       depending on the <parameter>memcache.allow_failover</parameter> setting.
       Default to &true;, meaning the server should be considered online.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>failure_callback</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Allows the user to specify a callback function to run upon encountering an 
       error. The callback is run before failover is attemped. The function takes 
       two parameters, the hostname and port of the failed server.
