  Crawl Not Running: The crawl process you are trying to suspend is not currently active. This could happen if the crawl has already completed or if it was never started.
  Invalid Crawl ID: The identifier (&1) you are using to reference the crawl may be incorrect or does not correspond to an active crawl.

  Solution:
  
  Check Crawl Status: Verify the status of the crawl process you are trying to suspend. You can do this by checking the crawl logs or the administration interface for the search engine.
  Correct Crawl ID: Ensure that you are using the correct crawl ID. Double-check the ID you are referencing to make sure it corresponds to an active crawl.
  Review System Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the SAP ESH to ensure that suspending crawls is allowed and that there are no restrictions in place.
  Restart the Crawl: If the crawl is not running and you need to stop it, consider restarting the crawl process instead of suspending it.
