So in looking at the causer report and below.

The ones with an identified fixing APAR, can go after and pull, However

UJ08845  HBB77C0  GIM35901I     21   ERROR HOLD CA64112 WAS NOT RESOLVED.

So I am trying to apply maintenance and want to know the actual APAR to look up 
to see if its open closed, or what?

YMMV
In my 25 years career I have seen a lot of PTFs, web deliverables, but only one 
APAR fix.
AFAIR I have read in some SMP/E course, the APAR fixes are not widely available 
and cannot be downloaded from ShopzSeries. APAR fixes are available directly to 
the customer who claimed the error in the software. And this is my case.
However in some other cases we submitted PMR and APAR was created, but we got 
information about PTF available in (near) future, no mention about APAR fix.

Of course it is only my humble experience, others can have different one.
