How to run multiple nginx master processes

[Frank Church]

I want to run multiple nginx master processes at boot time, based on this
script http://wiki.nginx.org/Nginx-init-ubuntu.

There are some variables at the top and I'd like to know if changing those
variables will make it successful.

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/nginx

PS="nginx"
PIDNAME="nginx"				#lets you do $PS-slave
PIDFILE=$PIDNAME.pid                    #pid file
PIDSPATH=/var/run

DESCRIPTION="Nginx Server..."

RUNAS=root                              #user to run as

SCRIPT_OK=0                             #ala error codes
SCRIPT_ERROR=1                          #ala error codes
TRUE=1                                  #boolean
FALSE=0                                 #boolean

lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/nginx
NGINX_CONF_FILE="/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf"

Of these the most likely ones are


PS="nginx"                              #own comment - it is used to
reference the running process in killall etc
                                        # I wonder if symlinking the
nginx binary and using that will stop the code
                                        # from breaking
                                        # it appears to be used for
locating the running process, and I suspect if it is not
                                        #changed it will interfere
with the default proces
                                        # hopefully nginx daemon does
use hardcoded references to its own name for
                                        # process management

PIDNAME="nginx"				#own comment - obvious need to avoid default binary
PIDFILE=$PIDNAME.pid                    #own comment - changed by
changing PIDNAME

PIDSPATH=/var/run                       # own comment - no need

DESCRIPTION="Nginx Server..."           # own comment - can be
changed, but looks harmless

RUNAS=root                              # own comment - this can be
changed for a particular user

SCRIPT_OK=0                             #own comment - no need - ala error codes
SCRIPT_ERROR=1                          #own comment - no need - ala error codes
TRUE=1                                  #own comment - no need - boolean
FALSE=0                                 #own comment - no need - boolean

lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/nginx         #own comment = has to be
different from default process
NGINX_CONF_FILE="/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf" #own comment -
clearly needs to be different


Any opinions, has anyone tried it before?
