Issue/Introduction

When listing an acid, there are several types of suspends that could be seen, including ASUSPEND, PSUSPEND, VSUSPEND, XSUSPEND, and SUSPEND. What do each of these mean?

Resolution

In older releases of Top Secret, the only attribute was SUSPEND. This was changed to make it more granular. The current suspends are: 

ASUSPEND - Administrative suspend 

PSUSPEND - Password suspend or inactive user 

VSUSPEND - Violation Suspend 

XSUSPEND - Exit suspend 

If any acids have just SUSPEND on them, most likely it has been on the acid a very long time (before the change from SUSPEND to the 4 listed above).
