Schedules can only match as often as Puppet runs, which means no more
than twice an hour, with the default runinterval.
If you set the same 'often' schedule with a period of daily, you'd run
12 times in that day, for instance, but Puppet only runs twice an hour
so repeating more often than that doesn't mean anything.
