It is on a probation violation. My husband was already on felony probation, and then pled guilty to another felony charge.

The po has asked the courts to revoke his probation. But I dont understand the part (and toll probation) does that mean they will put him in jail when he gos to court for the violation?

If a PTR (petition to revoke) was filed, and they asked that the probation period be "tolled", they are asking that the time between when they filed the PTR and when the hearing is held not be counted as time served as part of his probationary period. This is time that he will have to serve later.
For example, let's say that he was sentenced to a 12 month probation period. A PTR was filed and the judge agrees that the probation period be tolled. If there are 2 months between when the PTR was filed, and when the hearing is held, that 2 months won't count as time in his probation. He'll have to serve an additional 2 months on probation, meaning he's really on probation for a length of 14 months.

What the previous answers didn't address, (although answer 2 was close) was that you probaly need to consult an attorney.
It appears from what you have told us, that there was some sort of issue in the probationary period. This may or may not result in a Motion to Revoke Probation. You didn't indicate whether or not this has occurred, but its been my professional experience that they don't ask that the probationary period be tolled unless they are asking that probation is also revoked.
They ask that probation be tolled, as a stop-gap and as as secondary effect. In other words.. if the court decides that whever issue they are complaining about does NOT rise to a level of revocation of probation (which may result in jail) then they at least want the probation period extended for the period of time it takes the court to decide it.

This means your the probation officer is making a request to extend your probation period until a certain issue is resolved. So A. You need to determine what is the pending issue. B. You also need to know how they would like for you to handle the issue. C. And you should also ask how much longer will I have to be on probation once the issue is solved.

Sounds like someone wants you on double-secret (and indefinite) probation!
What did you do? Help them resolve that issue with a confession and then you'll get a specific period.
