Because QTCPIP runs in QSYSWRK [presumably still, on v7r1], I would
look at that subsystem which is started automatically as the side
effect of starting *any* subsystem; i.e. even if the *SBSD started
is not the controlling subsystem (QCTLSBSD).

Also, the history log message about TCP/IP starting may reveal
the information about how the job started; as well or instead, the
active or spooled joblog for the QTCPIP job, which I believe is the
name of the primary job for TCP/IP services on which the various
servers depend.

I found a message in a prior discussion, in which the TCP/IP was noted to have been started by a QSYSARB job; specifically, QSYSARB4 was named. However, that may have reflected a problem rather than a proper and expected implementation and effect?:

I wonder if anyone has found anything more about the *JOBD named QTOCSTRTCP in QSYS that has been mentioned.? Nobody mentioned if there was a last-used date on the object [e.g. reflecting the most recent IPL date], nor any object-read audit results [for that Job Description and\or the STRTCP *CMD object; of course, after CHGOBJAUD OBJAUD(*ALL) for those objects].
