Is there a catalog, or some outher SYS1. dataset residing on the volume?

 Yes, unless you had authorization to examine the running Master from IPCS. 
There is an address space named MASTER; I don't know how many jobstep tasks run 
in it these day, but I suspect that it's still only one.

Thanks for the brief on what the TIOT is (which I could have looked up).
However, I don't understand what you mean by 'run the TIOT in the master 
address space'.
Do you mean to dump some address space, and then look for a specific data area 
with IPCS or some such?
