The main thing is you have to configure server.xml so that the different instances use unique ports.

Do you really need multiple Tomcat instances, or are multiple virtual hosts what you really need?

Does that mean you want one JVM to run two instances of Tomcat? Why?
If what you really want is to host two separate and distinct web sites in the same instance, I believe that can be done by configuring server.xml. It is called "virtual hosting" - a google search for "tomcat virtual host" turned up a bunch of references.

Thanks.
I will look into multiple virtual hosts. Maybe this is what I need.
 
Can you hear that? That's my theme music. I don't know where it comes from. Check under this tiny ad:
