Can you configure each Squid to use a different ICAP service (i.e.
Squid instance #i would use ICAP service #i)? If the answer to that
question is "no", then please detail what prevents you from using that
(natural/obvious) solution.
It should be used with different pidfile correct?
What do you mean by "it"? The opening of your question states that you
already have a machine with N Squid instances so, I assume, you already
know how to run multiple Squid instances on the same machine. It does
require instance-specific PID files (pid_filename in squid.conf). It is
usually best to make that multi-Squid setup work well _before_ you add
ICAP into the mix.
If you are asking about ICAP server configuration, then you should
direct your question to ICAP server support. Each ICAP server has its
own configuration language and caveats...
In squid.conf for Squid instance #i, you will use an icap_service
directive to point that Squid instance #i to ICAP service #i (i.e. the
ICAP service dedicated to Squid instance #i). There are more complicated
ways to set this up, but this simple setup already addresses the
requirements you have shared so far.
HTH,
Alex.
