In order to run multiple nodes on a host, and consequently multiple clusters, 
you will need to edit the vm.args and app.config for each embedded node  (an 
embedded node being a copy of the rel/riak directory you built). For each of 
these nodes you will need to change the "-name [email protected]" setting in 
etc/vm.args to something like "-name [email protected]"  where X is the node 
number. In the etc/app.config you will need to change all of the port settings  
(handoff_port, pb_port, and web_port) so that they are unique to each node. 

This will allow you to start multiple nodes. Once a node is running you can use 
the "riak-admin join" to have it join another node and form a cluster.
