We don't. When formatting LCU's with mainly 3390-27 and 3390-09, there will be space left to format a couple of 3390-01's for ICFcats. There used to be (warnings of) problems when mixing ICF catalogs and VSAM dataset on the same volumes. IIRC there was a possibility of a deadly embrace when clusters from one ICF catalog existed on the volume of the other ICF catalog and clusters of the second ICF catalog existed on the volume of the first ICF catalog.
