{pve} has a very flexible replication scheduler. It is based on the systemd
-time calendar event format.footnote:[see `man 7 sytemd.time` for more information]
+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.
To allow easier and shorter configuration one or more repetition times can
be set. They indicate that on the start-time(s) itself and the start-time(s)
plus all multiples of the repetition value replications will be done. If
-you want to start replication at 8 AM and repeat it every 15 minutes you

Here you see also that if no hour separation (`:`) is used the value gets
interpreted as minute. If such a separation is used the value on the left
