Warning

When creating a new "free key" name, it is essential to check that it is not already present in memcached.

When a memcached key does not refer to the "_STA" or "_DYN"dataset of a system element, it takes a name of 8 characters followed by a 3 characters extension separated by a "_". Both the name and the extension are arbitrary even though It's advisable use 8 its format is free and can be arbitrary defined, provided that it is not already used.
Even though the name format is arbitrary, try to keep using 8 characters names and conventional extensions (e.g. MYNEWVAL_DAT).
