Kurt, thanks that's what I decided to do. Too many ptf's to exclude and I thought maybe we would use it later at some point.

You're right, you can't EXCLUDE by FMID. You'll have to exclude individual PTFs. However, why do you want to exclude them? If z/OSMF is installed in the subject LPAR, why not keep the service current and in sync with z/OS, even if you aren't running z/OSMF? You may decide later to run it. As a matter of fact, due to requisites between z/OS and z/OSMF, you may be forced to APPLY them anyway. That is, there may be PTFs in z/OS that contain ++IFREQ for PTFs in z/OSMF.
