Looking back at the OP, it seems that a) someone has issued a DEL NSCR on the
cluster, or b) someone wiped out a volume without properly deleting the data.
I would try DEF CL(HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE) VOL(XXXXXX) RECATALOG). There are a
number of caveats here. There are a fair number of attributes that must be
present on the DEF RECAT request and these must match the attributes of the
original cluster. E.g. If the original cluster was a KSDS, the INDEXED keyword
must be added to the DEF RECAT request.
If something is missing or incorrectly specified, the IDC3009I message will
indicate the possibilities. There are too many to cover in a brief email.
Try to find a recent catalog listing if possible. Otherwise guess, correct,
retry. Repeat until successful.
Is a backup/dump available? If so, delete the cluster components and recover
from backup/dump (see below).
Is it possible the cluster has been redefined somewhere else? (after the DEL
NSCR)
If all else fails, there is no risk in deleting the component(s), since no one
can access the data.
To delete the component, use IDCAMS in batch:
DEL HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE.DATA VVR FILE(DD1)
Where DD1 points to the volume in question.

I tried out your suggestion however it didn't work :
LISTC ENT('HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE.DATA') ALL
IDC3012I ENTRY HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE.DATA NOT FOUND
IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 8 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLEG-42
IDC1566I ** HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE.DATA NOT LISTED
IDCAMS SYSTEM SERVICES

The cluster name will be in the specified in the output.
The most likely name is '
HESP.BALFWD.DEFINE'

I am trying to find the
CLUSTER name of the VSAM components. We have a daily diagnose job run on the
volumes and it picked up the DATA & INDEX components.
IDC3302I ACTION ERROR ON SYS1.ICFCAT.APPLIC
IDC3351I ** VSAM I/O RETURN CODE IS 16 - RPLFDBWD = X'93080010' IDC21364I

I do not want to delete them
because I do not know who is the owner also, I do not know the impact it
could cause. I would like to recatalog the CLUSTER however I do not know how
I should go about finding the name.
Can anybody
suggest something that could help me track down the CLUSTER name?
