Caveat.

If the window is large enough for the long-term backup to complete before
the window closes, then the short-term one will run after that.  You'll get
two sequential backups at two different retentions for the same dataset.

Might be desirable if the long-term one goes offsite or similar.

No, if they have the same backup window and are in the
same the policy and they both come up due to run
NetBackup runs the schedule that has not been run most
recently. So if a weekly backup schedule and a monthly
schedule both come due and the weekly was backed up 7
days ago and the monthly was backed up 30 days ago
then NetBackup runs the backup that hasn't run in 30
days.

They cant run on a 4 week schedule. Our backup
schedule is set by the
accounting calendar. It turns out to be a 4 / 5 week
timeframe. But
wouldn't both jobs run at the same time?
