hi TSO specialists,

we use 

LISTCAT OUTFILE(CATLWORK) ALL CAT(xxxx)

and

LISTCAT OUTFILE(CATLWORK) ALL LE(xxxx)

tso commands in a REXX, and have validly pre-allocated the CATLWORK ddname.
the rexx is doing this for n catalogs correctly by writing all output to the
CATLWORK ddname. but after some while the output "breaks out" and becomes
listed on the SYSTSPRT ddname, i.e. becomes regularly listed. here is some
sample:

...
-INFO--> LISTCAT 4026 OF 8058 WILL BE PERFORMED                     
-INFO--> LIST CATALOG FOR ALIAS "DB2DDBS"                           
-INFO--> LISTCAT 4027 OF 8059 WILL BE PERFORMED                     
-INFO--> LIST CATALOG FOR ALIAS "DB2DDBU"                           
                             LISTING FROM CATALOG -- UCATDB.DB2DUCAT
GDG BASE ------ DB2DDBU.C1.R009400D.R009404S.P00002                 
     IN-CAT --- UCATDB.DB2DUCAT                             
     HISTORY                                                
       DATASET-OWNER-----(NULL)     CREATION--------2006.361
       RELEASE----------------2     LAST ALTER------2011.353
     ATTRIBUTES                                             
       LIMIT-----------------10     SCRATCH          NOEMPTY
     ASSOCIATIONS                                           
       NONVSAM--DB2DDBU.C1.R009400D.R009404S.P00002.G0034V00
       NONVSAM--DB2DDBU.C1.R009400D.R009404S.P00002.G0035V00
       NONVSAM--DB2DDBU.C1.R009400D.R009404S.P00002.G0036V00
...


does anybody have experience with processing the LISTCAT output(s)?
additional info: the SYSPRINT ddname is allocated to DUMMY.

is LISTCAT using any further ddnames that we need to pre-allocate?
does LISTCAT re-allocate or release any OUTFILE ddname?

thanks for your help, and merry chrismas!
stephen
