A computer system having suspend and resume capabilities using a plurality of suspend files to save multiple system states. Provision is made for use of multiple operating systems requiring multiple swap files. Also, a cross-session data file monitor prevents corruption of data files from one session to another.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION According to the present invention a computer system is provided that has a plurality of suspend files allowing multiple system states to be selectively saved and restored.
The present invention, thus, overcomes the drawback of always forcing the system to resume to the one single saved system state.
Thus it is a advantage of the present invention to allow multiple users to use their own suspend/resume sessions.
It is a further advantage of this invention to allow multiple suspend/resume sessions, regardless of the number of users.
It is yet another advantage of the present invention to provide multiple suspend files from which the system can be resumed.
These and other advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from a detailed description of the invention.
