So how big can a catalog get?  And what happens if you don't have retention
levels i.e. if you never overwrite data?

No

 

The catalog contains your backup image information.  Purging the catalog by
deleting files will cause database corruption.  The only way to shrink your
catalog is to utilize catalog compression or change your backup policies to
a lower retention level.  Daily, the catalog is purged via NBU to remove
expired backup image information.

Should the catalog be purged?  It is taking up alot of space on the disk.
