Data structure kc_osi_association_str

char association_id[8];

char osi_lpap[8];

char contwin;

char connect_state;

char contime_min[10];

char request_calls[10];

char indication_calls[10];

The fields in the data structure have the following meanings:

association_id
	Contains the identification (ID) assigned to the association when the connection is established. It is only unique as long as the association is established. If this association is closed, then the ID is released and can be assigned to another association (established thereafter). The association ID is an integer with a maximum of 8 digits.
osi_lpap
	Specifies the partner application with which the association has been established. UTM returns the name of the OSI-LPAP partner assigned to the partner application in osi_lpap.
contwin	(contention winner)
	Specifies if the local application for this association is the contention winner or the contention loser. The contention winner takes over the administration of the association. Jobs can be started, however, by the contention winner as well as by the contention loser. In case of a conflict, such as when both communication partners want to start a job at the same time, the association from the job of the contention winner will be used.
	'Y'	The local application is the contention winner.
	'N'	The local application is the contention loser.
connect_state
	Specifies the status of the association.
	'C'	The association is established.
	'W'	The association is being created. It is waiting for a "GO" from OSS.
	'S'	The association is being created and is in "STOP" state. It is waiting for a "GO" signal from OSS.
contime_min
	Specifies the connect time of the existing connection in minutes.
request_calls
	The number of request/response presentation calls to OSS since the creation of the association.
indication_calls
	The number of indication/confirmation presentation calls to OSS since the creation of the association.
