+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+
+:doc:`libmemcached` performs operations on a list of hosts. The order of
+these hosts determine routing to keys. Functions are provided to add keys to
+memcached_st structures. To manipulate lists of servers see
+memcached_server_st(3).
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_count` provides you a count of the current number of
+servers being used by a :c:type:`memcached_st` structure.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_add` pushes a single TCP server into the :c:type:`memcached_st` structure. This server will be placed at the end. Duplicate servers
+ are allowed, so duplication is not checked. Executing this function with the :c:type:`MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP` behavior set will result in a :c:type:`MEMCACHED_INVALID_HOST_PROTOCOL`.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_add_udp` pushes a single UDP server into the :c:type:`memcached_st` structure. This server will be placed at the end. Duplicate
+servers are allowed, so duplication is not checked. Executing this function with out setting the :c:type:`MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_USE_UDP` behavior will result in a
+:c:type:`MEMCACHED_INVALID_HOST_PROTOCOL`.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_add_unix_socket` pushes a single UNIX socket into the :c:type:`memcached_st` structure. This UNIX socket will be placed at the end.
+Duplicate servers are allowed, so duplication is not checked. The length
+of the filename must be one character less than :c:type:`MEMCACHED_MAX_HOST_LENGTH`.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_push` pushes an array of :c:type:`memcached_server_st` into the :c:type:`memcached_st` structure. These servers will be placed at
+the end. Duplicate servers are allowed, so duplication is not checked. A
+copy is made of structure so the list provided (and any operations on
+the list) are not saved.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_by_key` allows you to provide a key and retrieve the
+server which would be used for assignment.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_get_last_disconnect` returns a pointer to the last
+server for which there was a connection problem. It does not mean this
+particular server is currently dead but if the library is reporting a server
+is, the returned server is a very good candidate.
+
+:c:func:`memcached_server_cursor` takes a memcached_st and loops through the
+list of hosts currently in the cursor calling the list of callback
+functions provided. You can optionally pass in a value via
+context which will be provided to each callback function. An error
+return from any callback will terminate the loop. :c:func:`memcached_server_cursor` is passed the original caller :c:type:`memcached_st` in its current state.
