This error indicates that a specific crawl process (denoted by &1) is still active and has not been suspended as expected.
  Cause:
  
  Active Crawl Process: The crawl process is still running, and the system is unable to suspend it due to its current state.

  System Logs: Review system logs for any errors or warnings that might provide more context about why the crawl cannot be suspended.

  Configuration Check: Review the configuration settings for the crawl process to ensure they are set correctly. This includes checking the settings in the ESH configuration and any related background job settings.
