Question re docs and INTERVAL and CRON entries #7

Closed jeffmacdonald closed 5 years ago

jeffmacdonald commented 6 years ago

Hi,

I think it would be helpful to document that if you make your backup interval less than every 24 hours, you also need to increase the frequency of the "TakeSnapshots" job via the cron definition.

Is that understanding correct?

Just added a line to the README file to make this more explicit. If you don't think it's clear enough, feel free to edit :)
