By "batch jobs" I did not take that to only mean QBATCH. That being said, I did check out the routing entries for the QBATCH subsystem. Should any of these be pointing to subsystem pool 1, which ends up being *BASE?

At this time little web serving is being done. Mostly ADMIN. Some jobs in there for Infor's Webtop but I don't think it is being used at all.

When a job says:
Subsystem . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : QBATCH
Subsystem pool ID . . . . . . . . . . . . : 2
This means it is running in subsystem pool 2, which is system pool 3 which is *SHRPOOL1, right?

I wonder if we had one or more of these subsystems going to *SHRPOOL2 before but ran into problems and switched it back to *BASE?

From IBM:
<snip>
All batch processing appears to be running out of the default pool, *BASE. This is not efficient for processing high value jobs, as there is a large contention for memory and activity level resource in the one pool. There is also a mixture of job types which run out of *BASE, so expert cache is not able to effectively tune the memory page size for any particular type of job.
High value jobs should run out of a dedicated assigned pool, a shared pool with expert caching turned on. This will ensure the jobs do not contend for resource, and can run optimally.
