About X Session Suspend/Resume

Suspend/Resume lets you end an X session on your computer without terminating the X applications you are using. When you suspend an X session, Exceed Connection Server maintains it so that, when you log back into that server, you have the option of resuming the session and restarting the X applications you require. If you do not want to resume a session, you also have the option of terminating it and/or starting a new one.

Additional Suspend/Resume settings located in your Xconfig file let you safeguard your work against unwanted disconnections, and suspend sessions without terminating the X applications you were running. For more information, see Defining Other Settings.

Note: 
 
 
  • Administrators can set a timeout for suspended sessions. Sessions suspended for more than the allotted time are terminated.
  • Administrators can suspend user sessions if necessary.

Your Exceed onDemand administrator grants Suspend/Resume privileges. Depending on the privileges granted to you, you may also be able to resume a session on a machine other than the one on which you suspended it.
