+Schedule Format
+---------------
+
+{pve} has a very flexible scheduling configuration. It is based on the systemd
+time calendar event format.footnote:[see `man 7 systemd.time` for more information]
+Calendar events may be used to refer to one or more points in time in a
+single expression.
+
+Such a calendar event uses the following format:
+
+----
+[day(s)] [[start-time(s)][/repetition-time(s)]]
+----
+
+This format allows you to configure a set of days on which the job should run.
+You can also set one or more start times. It tells the replication scheduler
+the moments in time when a job should start.
+With this information we, can create a job which runs every workday at 10
+PM: `'mon,tue,wed,thu,fri 22'` which could be abbreviated to: `'mon..fri
+22'`, most reasonable schedules can be written quite intuitive this way.
+
+NOTE: Hours are formatted in 24-hour format.
+
+To allow a convenient and shorter configuration, one or more repeat times per
+guest can be set. They indicate that replications are done on the start-time(s)
+itself and the start-time(s) plus all multiples of the repetition value. If
+you want to start replication at 8 AM and repeat it every 15 minutes until
+9 AM you would use: `'8:00/15'`
+
+Here you see that if no hour separation (`:`), is used the value gets
+interpreted as minute. If such a separation is used, the value on the left
+denotes the hour(s), and the value on the right denotes the minute(s).
+Further, you can use `*` to match all possible values.
+
+To get additional ideas look at
+xref:pvesr_schedule_format_examples[more Examples below].
+
+Detailed Specification
+----------------------
+
+days:: Days are specified with an abbreviated English version: `sun, mon,
+tue, wed, thu, fri and sat`. You may use multiple days as a comma-separated
+list. A range of days can also be set by specifying the start and end day
+separated by ``..'', for example `mon..fri`. These formats can be mixed.
+If omitted `'*'` is assumed.
+
+time-format:: A time format consists of hours and minutes interval lists.
+Hours and minutes are separated by `':'`. Both hour and minute can be list
+and ranges of values, using the same format as days.
+First are hours, then minutes. Hours can be omitted if not needed. In this
+case `'*'` is assumed for the value of hours.
+The valid range for values is `0-23` for hours and `0-59` for minutes.
