Is there a way to determine which jobs on the system have an iASP

I haven't dug into the APIs too deeply yet and thought someone must
have figured that one out by now.

Perhaps using the same as what is used to provide that information from the available functions [including, to obtain a list of jobs using an iASP] found under the "Disk Pools" navigation. I do not recall if the "Disk Pool Groups" navigation enabled a similar feature, but from the combined output of both the primary independent ASP and secondary iASPs of a disk pool group, the distinct list of job [threads] listed across those iASP should suffice. I am unaware of what method would obtain the secondary independent disk pool(s) under an "ASP group" [named by the primary ASPDEV], if not defined in cluster resources, for which IIRC, the cluster APIs would probably suffice.
