In this example, the catalog SYS1.ICFCAT.NEWCAT is defined using SYS1.ICFCAT.MODEL as a model. The MODEL parameter specifies the name of the model, and the catalog that contains the entries for the model. Because catalogs contain their own entries, you must specify the name of the catalog twice in the MODEL parameter.
