Values are submitted to I<Sorted Sets>, using the metric name as the key, and
the timestamp as the score. Retrieving a date range can then be done using the
C<ZRANGEBYSCORE> I<Redis> command. Additionnally, all the identifiers of these
-I<Sorted Sets> are kept in a I<Set> called C<collectd/values> or C<Prefix/values> if a Prefix was specified and can be
-retrieved using the C<SMEMBERS> I<Redis> command. See
+I<Sorted Sets> are kept in a I<Set> called C<collectd/values> (or
+C<${prefix}/values> if the B<Prefix> option was specified) and can be retrieved
+using the C<SMEMBERS> I<Redis> command. See
L<http://redis.io/commands#sorted_set> and L<http://redis.io/commands#set> for
details.
The B<Timeout> option sets the socket connection timeout, in milliseconds.

+Prefix used when constructing the name of the I<Sorted Sets> and the I<Set>
+containing all metrics. Defaults to C<collectd/>, so metrics will have names
+like C<collectd/cpu-0/cpu-user>. When setting this to something different, it
+is recommended but not required to include a trailing slash in I<Prefix>.
