Jim, I don't have a system to check on right now, but my recollection is that these QTFTPxxxxx jobs are pre-start jobs. If these jobs are being used many thousands of times and then taking forever to clean themselves up, you may want to look at the pre-start job entry in the subsystem. One of the parameters is MAXUSE, which will determine how many times a job can process requests before it is ended. On your system, what is the value for this parameter? If it is *NOMAX, perhaps you would benefit by setting this to a hundred or so. Valid values are between one and one thousand, or *NOMAX. You might end up incurring some additional overhead during normal operations, but it might lessen the amount of cleanup required for a shutdown. It sounds as though this is a significant source of irritation for you. You would use the WRKSBSD (Work with Subsystem Description) command to view the pre-start job entries and CHGPJE (Change Pre-Start Job Entry) to change the values which control the jobs. Because this is an IBM thing, you might need to re-apply changes following PTF's or upgrades.
