As far as I remember, there is no way to turn IRD off if it was ever turned on by defining those structures. And XCF/XES is very bad in not providing any cleanup abilities for anything sysplex related. Did you try a structure rebuild? There was a time when that would have gotten rid of these sturctres because there was no place to build them into. These days the rebuild might just be denied. If rebuild doesn't work, a sysplex IPL without those structures defined is your only chance. Just like XCF will always remember that at one time a certain couple data set (ARM in our case) used to be active. It will show up faithfully on a D XCF,CPL command despite the fact that the whole plex was IPL'd without the ARM CDSs in COUPLExx and despite the fact that those datasets don't physically exist anymore.
