Good.  That's the test we used when we were developing the reconnection 
capability.

You are correct.   The entity that creates the channel needs to capture 
the ChannelID returned from the create_channel call and save it 
"somewhere safe" for use during reconnection.

suppliers?Some kind of function that I pass Channel Name and returns de 
ChannelID in some way.

Sorry, no such function exists.
