Are you licensed for Innovation Data Processing's ABR or FDREPORT products? If 
so
there's a very simple FDREPORT job that will get the information you need using
the following control cards:

**********
*
*      Job extracts GDG base information from the system catalogs.
*      Currently it takes about 74 seconds to extract the data
*      from 295,040 GDG base records residing in a catalog structure
*      containing 1.663 million entries.
*
**********
SUMMARY FIELD=DSN               /*  summarize entries processed */
REPORT  FIELD=(GDGBASE,         /*  gdg base name               */
               GDGENTRY,        /*  active entry count          */
               GDGLIMIT,        /*  active entry limit          */
               GDGFLAGS,        /*  processing flags            */
               GDGLADAT)        /*  last altered date           */
PRINT   DATATYPE=CATALOG,       /*  process system catalogs     */
        ENABLE=GDGBASEONLY      /*  select only GDG base names  */
