Can you tell me the implications of

rob@pi4:~ $ weectl device --set-interval=5
Using configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf
Using driver weewx.drivers.vantage.
Using Vantage driver version 3.6.2 (weewx.drivers.vantage)
Old archive interval is 1 minutes, new one will be 5 minutes.

*Proceeding will change the archive interval as well as erase all old 
archive records.Are you sure you want to proceed (y/n)?*


Are these just archived on the console? So if WeeWX was up to date, no 
impact on my database?
