Don't confuse the IBM Security Portal and SECINT HOLDDATA with the general use 
HOLDDATA.  Anybody, including vendors, can get the HOLDDATA that identifies 
HIPER and PE fixes and Fix Categories.  For example, here:
https://public.dhe.ibm.com/eserver/zseries/holddata/full.txt

IBM's HOLDDATA is updated every day as PEs and HIPERs are discovered and fixed, 
so there is no particular level like RSU or PUT or otherwise that pertains to 
HOLDDATA.  If in doubt when the HOLDDATA was last obtained, just get the latest 
for that day.  Or automate getting HOLDDATA everyday, then you never have to 
ask yourself that question.
