It almost looks like someone issued a command:
CHGSBSD SBSD(COMPILES) POOLS((1 *NOSTG))

I strongly suggest you:

CHGSBSD SBSD(COMPILES) POOLS((1 *BASE *N ))

To get the subsystem monitor running in *BASE.

Just for clarity I would :

CHGSBSD SBSD(COMPILES) POOLS((1 *BASE *N) (2 *SHRPOOL3 *N))

Then change all the routing entries to point to subsystem pool 2.

Stop and start the subsystem.

Then:

CHGSBSD SBSD(COMPILES) POOLS((4 *NOSTG *N))

Now you'll have that beast running as you want it to.

this has been a problem... Thanks so much!

No, my COMPILES subsystem looks like:
Sbsd..........TtlStg...1...2...3...4...5
COMPILES.........00................12

I only have one pool entry in my SBSD.
all 3 routing entries point to pool 4.
