Ron, For an overview you can run a CXX report from the DBUTLTY utility.
A TYPE=A report will give you all databases and all areas. A CXX report (REPORT AREA=CXX) will give everything. The report is based on the physical layout of tables/areas/keys/elements. For each table it will list the record/row length and for each key and element the offsets and lengths. This can be very important in understanding the physical versus dictionary view of things. Multiple versions of a dictionary view can exist and any version may be catalogued including test (Tnnn) or PROD. Just make sure your CXX report matches the dictionary version you are working from. Email me offline if you need more advice.
