+<h1>global() configuration object</h1>
+
+<p>The global configuration object permits to set global parameters.
+Note that each parameter can only be set once and cannot be re-set
+thereafter. If a parameter is set multiple times, the behaviour is
+unpredictable.
+
+<p>The following paramters can be set:
+<ul>
+<li></b>action.reportSuspension</b> - binary, default "on", v7.5.8+c<br>
+If enabled ("on") action will log message under syslog.* when an action
+suspends or resume itself. This usually happens when there are problems
+connecting to backend systems. If disabled ("off"), these messages are
+not generated. These messages can be useful in detecting problems with
+backend systems. Most importantly, frequent suspension and resumption
+points to a problem area.
