The days of one catalog per volume was in the VS1 days. They also used a method of sub allocation, in that you defined a huge space on the volume and all new vsam datasets were put into that one space. I vaguely remember doing the conversion to MVS and the conversion worked like magic, what used to be one dataset was now several hundred. I was happy that the person who originally created it allowed enough vote space.
