* TBD: Maybe this is not optimal if there is a lot of data to rotate. In this case, it might be that for example weekly and daily snapshot both run at the same time what might lead to strange results. Instead one could create another wrapper script which is called everyday and does some simple logic:
** Is today the first day of a month?
*** Yes: Is today sunday?
**** Yes: Execute monthly then weekly then daily rsnapshots using the snapshot.pl script (but wait for each interval to finish before starting the next)
**** No: Execute monthly then daily rsnapshots using the snapshot.pl script (but wait for monthly interval to finish before starting the daily)
*** No: Is today sunday?
**** Yes: Execute weekly then daily rsnapshots using the snapshot.pl script (but wait for weekly interval to finish before starting the daily)
**** No: Execute daily rsnapshots using the snapshot.pl script
This avoids the above mentioned collision
