interval in a launchd script

Hi,

i'm planning a to automate my backup with a rsync user deamon in my launchd and let that run every 2 hours.
my server contains a lot of video data which can expand rapidly , up to 1TB, in an interval of 2 hours.
now i'm wondering what will happen when a rsync is running longer then the interval and the next command is already given. will it abort one of them? place them in a cue? or will it start running anyway? in the last case i can imagine that this will cause incomplete/corrupt files on my backup filesystem.
does anyone know the answer to this?

thanks in advance,

wessel
