This is not a question – more like a temporary correction. As of today (October 29, 2019), there isn’t a way have snapshot creation frequency greater than 24 hours (1 day). The instructor mentioned "days" but it can only be a max frequency of 1 day at this point. AWS has been working on adding more flexibility (support for additional AWS data sources, policies that will let you do weekly and monthly snapshots, etc.) for a little while now apparently but the currently supported frequencies are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours.

Hi Ccottondc,
Thanks for the catch there. I’ll remove the "days" part as I agree it is confusing. I think I was thinking about 24 hours = 1 day….meaning you could get snapshots each day.
