I'm a little unsure on how you make the blackout period cover a full
day (i.e. the boundary conditions of hourBegin/hourEnd)

I want to for example black out the weekend -- all Saturday & Sunday.
i.e. from midnight Friday night to midnight Sunday night.

Will the following do that?

    $Conf{BlackoutPeriods} = [
        {
            hourBegin =>  0.0,
            hourEnd   => 24.0,
            weekDays  => [0,7],
        },

Also, is there any way to get BackupPC_nightly to also not run during
the blackout period other than perhaps shutting off the entire service
for that period.
