Hello Ron,
Thanks for your response. Now I'm able to start and destroy dialog properly. But I guess dialog timer is reset when openser receives "Update" message. I looked in dialog and sst module codes and found that they rely on UA to send "Update" message periodically to keep the dialog active. I dont think it is good idea to rely on clients as all clients may not be sending "UPDATE" messages after call is established. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also I think that I may have to change source code of dialog or sst to send bye if any UA is broken and can't send "Bye" in case of dialog timeout.

I will take a look at the SST code, this sounds like a bug. There has been a
great deal of change in the dialogs, and stats lately and something could
have gotten by me.

your script looks like it should work, the only thing is the
avp_write("15", "$avp(i:10)"); Why a 15 second dialog timeout, what is the
SST refresh time? 15 seconds is too short.
