Ah hah!  I highly suspect the latest HOLDDATA is the reason for the
discrepancy.  I'm pretty sure the PSP bucket instructs you to first get
the latest HOLDDATA before running the REPORT MISSINGFIX command.

Indeed they do!

"This entry documents the z/OS support required for the
z13s server. It has been separated by z/OS release.  You
should use these SMP/E Fix Categories specified, with
current FIXCAT HOLDDATA (see instructions below):        "

...

"Fix categories are defined in IBM HOLDDATA.  Therefore,
before you run the SMP/E REPORT command, you must first
acquire the latest HOLDDATA from IBM.  Current
HOLDDATA is provided in all IBM service deliverables,
including orders produced using SMP/E RECEIVE ORDER
and ShopzSeries,.  Also, they are available in the "Full"
(730 day) HOLDDATA file you can download directly from
(ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/s390/holddata/full.txt).   "

Also, note that the 2965 categories by themselves are perhaps insufficient, depending on what machine you are coming from. You should at least also include the 2964 ones, but for simplicity's sake I'd recommend using IBM.Device.Server.* and whatever functional FIXCATs you need as described in the PSP.

Please let us know if the PSP's instructions should be clarified somehow.
