Here's what I get, doing a DSPOBJD *ALL/*ALL *SVRSTG

In QUSRSYS, I get:
WINTOUCH1    with a size of 11799552
WINTOUCH3    with a size of 38800384

and in QXZ1, I get:
QFPHSYS1     with a size of 11799552
QFPHSYS2     with a size of 46664704
QFPHSYS3     with a size of 38800384

That's a total of 141M, a not-insignificant fraction of 
the total disk space on the box.

If I do a WRKNWSD or a WRKNWSSTG, I get a NWSD called 
WINTOUCH (listed as "inactive"), but no storage is 
associated with it. If I try to do a DLTNWSSTG on any of 
the objects named above, I get a "NOT FOUND" error. And if 
I try to do an IFS DLT on them, I get a message about the 
file system not supporting the operation. (I think I 
somehow did something out of sequence, some years ago, 
when I was trying to cram the entire system onto its one 
remaining drive. The docs on how to get rid of a *SVRSTG 
appear to be practically nonexistent.)
