don't  understand why you would want to turn on the DIRF   bit.  I used to

I got it backwards.  I also used to zap the DIRF bit on, then  allocated a 
meaningless temporary data set to force DADSM to clean up the  VTOC.  I 
misunderstood from the way you phrased it.  I thought you  meant you were 
allocating a 
data set in order to get the bit turned on.  It  would be turned on in 
allocation and then turned off at the end of the  allocation process.  You have 
to 
turn it on by hand before you do the  allocation in order to cause the cleanup.
