It was the only kind of catalog prior to OS/VS back in the 1970s, and it continued in common use well into the 1990s. Perhaps more strictly, it is the *volume* that contains such a catalogue that is the CVOL (Control Volume). The catalog is a CVOL Catalog. That ancient *VSAM* catalog was the only kind of VSAM catalog in the early days, and was a design disaster for a bunch of reasons. It was replaced long ago by the ICF (Integrated Catalog Facility?) catalog, which with some tweaks is pretty much what we have today. Regardless, these various catalogs have nothing at all to do with VTOCs, indexed or not.
