   For the *SBSD identified by the system value QCTLSBSD, issue DSPSBSD 
and review the Autostart Job Entries via option 3.  Something like the 
following should appear:

   Job            Job Description     Library
   QSTRUPJD         QSTRUPJD          QSYS

   Issuing the request to DSPJOBD QSYS/QSTRUPJD should show the "User 
profile" as QPGMR versus *RQD.  This is the means by which the QPGMR 
starts the startup job QSTRUPDJ that runs the QSTRUPPGM which effects 
the [user controlled portion of] the system start-up after either a 
PwrDwnSys\IPL or either of ENDSYS or ENDSBS *ALL.

   Thus to change the user profile for that auto-start job, issue the 
request to:
  CHGJOBD QSYS/QSTRUPJD USER(newname) /* maybe USRPRF(newname) ? */
