SMP/E does maintain the date each ++HOLD statement was received, but it does 
not expose it, not even in the CSI Query API.  However, z/OSMF Software 
Management has two reports which query the HOLDDATA and both expose that date.  
So, if you define a Software Instance for your installed software you can 
perform the Maintenance Reports -> Missing Critical Service or Missing FIXCAT 
SYSMODs actions.  The resulting report contains a "HOLDDATA Received" column 
indicating the most recent date ERROR or FIXCAT HOLDDATA was received into the 
global zone.
