 PNP4Nagios for Debian
 ---------------------
 
+PNP4Nagios supports several modes of operation. They differ in the way how
+performance data is being processed and, thus, the efficiency of PNP. Detailed
+documentation is available at <http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.6/modes>.
+
+Using bulk mode
+---------------
+
 We recommend to use bulk mode with NPCD and npcdmod. This will facilitate an
 easy installation and fast processing of performance data. To enable NPCD, set
 'RUN' to 'yes' in /etc/default/npcd.

+
+Using Gearman mode
+------------------
+
+Starting with version 0.6.12, PNP4Nagios may operate as a Gearman worker. This
+is useful in large, distributed setups using Nagios's mod_gearman. To enable
+the PNP Gearman worker, set 'RUN' to 'yes' in /etc/default/pnp_gearman_worker.
+Also, you'll need a running mod_gearman environment. See
+<http://labs.consol.de/lang/en/nagios/mod-gearman/> for detailed setup
+instructions.
