Rsnapshot: using different intervals for different directories

Question

Is it possible to backup two different directories using two different intervals using rsnapshot? For example, if I want to backup my /home directory every day, but my /archive directory once a month. Or is that kind of moot point since rsnapshot only saves hard links if no changes are made?

Answer 1

I'd try to create different config files and then call rsnapshot separately for each directory, passing the respective config file with the -c option.
