Since we don't use Netware, why would this autostart job try to run?
Or is it something that always runs on every System i regardless of
what features or products are installed? Especially curious because
tomorrow (Friday, 25 February) I intend to drop/delete a few products
(AFP, for example) that we do not use to free up some room on our
"crowded" disks.


I am not sure what added the AJE QFSIOPJOB to QSYSWRK, but I would expect that for any LPP which is deleted, if the RSTLICPGM of that same LPP had performed the prior ADDAJE, then the install-exit for the effective *BEFORE *DELETE phase of processing would effect the RMVAJE.

However since the called program QFPAACTV is in QSYS, I would expect the AJE is either part of the OS [and thus on all systems] or added as an option of the OS; i.e. not by a separate LPP. From the docs, I infer as part of the OS, and that the AJE is responsible only to submit\start the two jobs "QNETWARE and QPRFSYNCH jobs to run in this subsystem if needed."

The key phrase I expect, is "if needed." There are a number of features that are activated to be available as part of the OS irrespective of use; others activated only to the point of discovery that there is nothing configured, and they either terminate or simply wait on an event, queue, or condition, with a job status EVTW, DEQW, or CNDW. I would not be concerned about the existence of the AJE nor the joblog(s), if no errors are recorded either to the QHST from or to any of those joblogs. I infer the jobs are there to handle the "events" for which some NetWare related activity should occur [if only for user profile synchronizing] for any user\group profile that is "enrolled"; or that they "restart automatically" when required per:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzaef/rzaefjoblogdetails.htm

If there was a requirement to ensure no NetWare capabilities [presumably for lack of a NetWare server in the network], perhaps something in the "contents" frame or the "Install" or "Configure" links on the page would describe the means to disable the support; RMVAJE may seem an obvious means, but may not be recommended, depending on affects on things like RSTUSRPRF or password expiration processing by the OS:
