Description

Backup schedules are currently reported as a set of four numbers, e.g. 6-7-4-6. This describes how many of each layer of backups will be kept. The layers are:

  • 4-hourly
  • daily
  • weekly
  • monthly

so "6-7-4-6" represents a more friendly description of:

"Every four hours retaining six iterations; every day retaining seven iterations; every week retaining four iterations and every month retaining six iterations"

It would be nice to generate and display this human-readable description in the panel wherever the current schedule string is present.
