You have to set it to the view template admin\\views\\*view_name\\tmpl\\*template_name.php .

The structure that you have to use is:

<?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.startTabSet', 'myTab', array('active' => 'general')); ?>
    <?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.addTab', 'myTab', 'general', JText::_('COM_COMPONENT_NAME_TAB_1_NAME', true)); ?>

    ...

    <?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.endTab'); ?>
    <?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.addTab', 'myTab', 'advanced', JText::_('COM_COMPONENT_NAME_TAB_2_NAME', true)); ?>

    ...

    <?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.endTab'); ?>
<?php echo JHtml::_('bootstrap.endTabSet'); ?>

You could also check core components to get more examples.

As for the contents of each tab, you could restrict the loop to get the fields of one fieldset only using:

<?php foreach ($this->form->getFieldset("general") as $field): ?>
    <div class="control-group">
        <div class="control-label"><?php echo $field->label; ?></div>
        <div class="controls"><?php echo $field->input; ?></div>
    </div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
