+# Peatio daemons
+
+Peatio daemons are managed by [God](http://godrb.com/).
+
+## Starting daemons
+
+To start God as daemon run:
+
+`god -c lib/daemons/daemons.god`
+
+You can also start God in foreground:
+
+`god -c lib/daemons/daemons.god -D`
+
+**God starts all daemons when it is being initialized.**
+
+Use `god stop` to stop all daemons. God will still be up.
+Use `god start` to start all daemons.
+
+## Stopping daemons
+
+To stop God and all daemons run:
+
+`god terminate`
+
+To stop only daemons leaving God up run:
+
+`god stop`
+
+## Restarting daemons
+
+`god restart`
+
+Be patient when starting or stopping daemons: most of daemons support graceful termination so God will first send SIGTERM, wait short period of time, and forcefully kill process by sending SIGKILL if it is still up.
+
+## Querying status
+
+`god status`
+
+## Reading logs
+
+Each daemon has it's own log file localed at `log/daemons`.
