Backup example
The following example goes through the process of creating an object. It is assumed the transaction has already been started). The BSA_ObjectDescriptor is populated with the values that are associated with the object. Then the DataBlock32 structure is created to receive any restrictions put on the data by the NetBackup Interface. BSACreateObject() is then called to create the object and start the backup process. Once the object is created, this example sends one buffer of data with the BSASendData() call. After the last BSASendData() call, the object is completed with a BSAEndTxn(), which commits the object.
This example only creates one object and only sends one buffer of data. In general, objects take multiple buffers and a transaction can create multiple objects.
