I was trying to find my CD with FDR, and I found it, but its too hard finding anything with a PDF file. I thought I read something in the book about reorging catalogs with Compactor, but its been a long time since I read about that, and I don't really remember what it does and doesn't do. I don't remember if FDR has their books on their web site, or if you have to own the product to access them. I know I always used the paper manual, which I could always find what I wanted.

Yeah, I believe COMPAKTOR will re-arrange the extents of a usercat, but I don't think it will even merge the extents. It certainly WILL NOT reorganize the catalog records.

Not so sure about FDR.  Do you have a link?  I see a lot of references to
reorganizing datasets on a volume (releasing space, consolidate free space,
consolidate data set extents, etc.), but I don't see any reference to
reorganizing user catalogs.

I believe Innovations FDR Compactor can be used to reorganize usercats on
the fly also.  If you have Compactor, your Sunday window would be a good
time.  It probably would be easier to use than IDCAMs.
