That said, should the CATINDEX be cataloged? I have some usercat where
the 
CATINDEX is catalog and some aren't.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The CATINDEX is *ALWAYS* cataloged since it's the index portion of a
VSAM KSDS.  Its catalog entry is in the usercat for the catalog for
which it is defined.  The UCAT entry in the master catalog points to the
user catalog.  All information regarding the user catalog itself (like
its constituent components such as the index) is contained in the user
catalog.  To see this info, specify the CATALOG parameter in the LISTCAT
command as already pointed out by Martin Kline.
