What do the domain status codes in Plesk mean?

Question

While checking the status of the domain in Plesk database or by API apart from default 0 "Active" there could be other codes such as 1,2,4 or even 272 and 288. In Panel all of them are shown as "Suspended". What do these status codes mean?

Answer

Here is the table of status codes that might be returned by Plesk and their meanings:

status value            value   binary           desсription
STATUS_ACTIVE           0       00000000         active
STATUS_STATUS           1       00000001         suspended
STATUS_WITH_PARENT      2       00000010         suspended because of parent object
STATUS_BACKUP_RESTORE   4       00000100         suspended because of backup/restore
STATUS_WEB_SERVICE      8       00001000         service is temporarily off for web
STATUS_ADMIN            16      00010000         suspended by administrator
STATUS_RESELLER         32      00100000         suspended by reseller
STATUS_CLIENT           64      01000000         suspended by client
STATUS_EXPIRED          256    100000000         suspended due to expiration

There is also a bitmask combination rule, which may combine the different statuses into one by summing up codes. E.g. 272 is a combination of statuses 256 and 16, which means that domain was suspended by the administrator and reached an expiration date.
