Starting a server into normal mode emits these transitions for the process running state:

• starting -> suspended -> normal

Similarly when transitioning to admin-only mode:

• starting -> suspended -> admin-only

Stopping from normal mode:

• normal -> suspending -> suspended -> stopping

Starting into suspended mode emits:

• starting -> stopping -> stopped
  (and the stopped state represents that the server is actually in suspended mode)

I find it confusing that:

• During a normal start, it transitions through a state named suspended even though the server is not suspended. this is actually correct
• During a stop, it is even more confusing, because it goes through one extra state - suspending which doesn't occur during start. - this is actually correct
• The state to represent a suspended server is named stopped and not suspended.
