+=head1 NAME
+
+monitor - Torrus Monitor.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<torrus monitor> --tree=I<TREENAME> [I<options...>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This command starts the Monitor process for the tree I<TREENAME>. By
+default it forks into a daemon, sets the log output file to
+F<@logdir@/monitor.TREENAME.log>, performs one monitoring cycle, and
+sleeps until the next cycle is scheduled. In daemon mode the log file
+can be reopened by sending it a SIGHUP signal.
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<--nodaemon>
+
+Prevents the process from becoming a daemon and sets the log to STDERR.
+
+=item B<--runonce>
+
+Instructs the script to run once and exit. Implies B<--nodaemon>.
+
+=item B<--delay=N>
+
+Makes the daemon sleep for N minutes before starting the first cycle.
+This would happen on the daemon startup and also after each configuration
+recompilation.
+For example, when monitor and collector start simultaneously, the collector
+needs some time to retrieve the data being monitored.
+
+=item B<--debug>
+
+Sets the log level to debug.
+
+=item B<--verbose>
+
+Sets the debug level to info.
+
+=item B<--help>

+Displays a help message.
