Good reasons to reorg a catalog might include: Remove IMBED/REPLICATE. Out of or near out of extents. Dead CIs. In sufficient index and/or data CISIZE. Catalog is allocated in tracks rather than cylinders.

Simplest method: see the extents in ISPF. CAT can have up to 123 extents (cannot be multi-volume), of course the volume cannot be full, otherwise the next extent won't have a place. BTW: I remember an opinion of Mark Thomen (he works with catalogs in IBM): there is no pain if your catalog have extents of splits. No need to reorganize it.
