In my original idea, I just wanted to log the "daemon started" message.
After thinking more about it, I agree that the message is not at "error" level.
However, considering this message will be helpful for some users like system 
operators,
how about changing this message level to "info" and meanwhile changing the 
default log level to "LOG_INFO" as following?

diff --git a/ndctl/monitor.c b/ndctl/monitor.c
