Hello,
I assume that you ask what to configure? :-)

Backup jobs: two of them. one for the file server and another one for the other servers. Recommendation: forward incremental with synthetic full on REFS / XFS file system. Synthetic full on Wednesday / Thursday
GFS media pool: create two of them with the settings you need
Backup to tape jobs: create two of them with the settings you need. In the scheduling options you can select the days for the full backups monthly / weekly

Best regards,
Hannes
