I now see it in multiple syntax diagrams. And in the z/OS Diagnosis Guide it says the SLIP ACTION can specify SVCD or SYNCSVCD. That's nice. It agrees with the Commands manual. But I'm still a bit short on descriptions and explanations. Just from the concept of "synchronous" I assume something is suspended in SYNCSVCD processing. And I assume that something is not as extensive as with QUIESCE=YES. My gut feeling is "all processing in the dumped address space" is suspended (which could be good for diagnosis but bad for processing) but that's a guess.
