We do not have any 81 byte records in the holddata files. PTFs and holddata both require fixed 80 byte records There are some "packed" holddata files that have a different LRECL. If you select the packed files, you will need to unpack them with AMATERSE before processing with SMP/E.
If you are not using RECEIVE ORDER OR MSM (CSM?), you can find and download holddata from CA from this page. Even though there is a "recommended-reading" in the link, it contains the actual link holddata. Holddata and assign statment downloads: https://support.ca.com/us/product-content/recommended-reading/technical-document-index/downloading-holddata-and-assign-statements.html CAUNZIP documentation is in several places, including here: https://docops.ca.com/ca-common-services-for-z-os/14-1/en/administrating/caunzip-utility I think that is in the "Installing" section of most product wikis.
