Note in the SMP/E Commands manual under the SELECT statement within the RECEIVE
command states:
SELECT specifies one or more SYSMOD IDs that should be received. .....
Notes:
4. If you specify HOLDDATA and do not specify SYSMODs, only the HOLDDATA for
the selected SYSMODs is received. The SYSMODs themselves are not received, nor
are any associated ++FEATURE or ++PRODUCT MCS.
Not a bug, and documented to work this way. I've used this exact syntax in the
past to grab just a certain bit of HOLDDATA that I wanted to get into a global
zone.

Subject: SMP/E RECEIVE SELECT( ... ) HOLDDATA ?
I recently tried something like
RECEIVE
SELECT( sysmod1 sysmod2 sysmod3 )
HOLDDATA
.
The SYSMODs in the SELECT list were quietly ignored. I consider
this pretty much a bug: if SELECT is mutex with HOLDDATA, I ought
to be given a message.
