-Example cron jobs:
+# Scheduling
+## systemd
+Copy the example systemd [unit files](systemd/) to `/etc/systemd/system/`. Then for each
+configuration file in `/etc/borgwrapper/<config_name>.sh` do:
+
+    systemctl enable borgwrapper-backup@<config_name>.timer
+    systemctl enable borgwrapper-verify@<config_name>.timer
+
+    systemctl start borgwrapper-backup@<config_name>.timer
+    systemctl start borgwrapper-verify@<config_name>.timer
+
+You can view the backup logs with:
+
+    journalctl -xu borgwrapper-backup@<config_name>
+    journalctl -xu borgwrapper-verify@<config_name>
+
+If you want to run the tasks manually outside the timers you can just start them like usual
+services:
+
+    systemctl start borgwrapper-backup@<config_name>
+    systemctl start borgwrapper-verify@<config_name>
+
+## Cron (use only if systemd is not available)
