Details

This application ID is the displayable format of an actual SNA LUWID (Logical Unit-of-Work ID) that flows on the network when an APPC conversation is allocated. APPC-generated application IDs are made up by concatenating the network name, the LU name, and the LUWID instance number, which creates a unique label for the client/server application. The network name and LU name can each be a maximum of 8 characters. The application instance corresponds to the 12-decimal-character LUWID instance number.
