Aren't most HTTP server jobs using the same name as the configuration member in QUSRSYS/QATMHINSTC? Those jobs are usually running in subsystem QHTTPSVR (that CAN be changed, of course).
And those config members each have a record like this -
-apache -d /www/apachedft -f conf/httpd.conf -AutoStartN
This says it is using Apache, there is an absolute path to the directory that has all that Apache needs, then a relative path inside that directory to the full configuration. Finally, whether the server starts automatically.
And isn't there an SQL service that has TCP/IP info? Yes, a few, under communications. Here's the NETSTAT_JOB_INFO view - you don't need to use the WHERE - if you don't have any IPV6 connections, no big dea.
SELECT * FROM QSYS2.NETSTAT_JOB_INFO
WHERE JOB_NAME like '%INSTANCENM%' ;
You will see local and remote port and IP address if a job is connected, and I think otherwise, the job is listening. If there's nothing there, you can probably start the thing up.
This is much easier than using the NETSTAT CL command.
This is just a quick remembrance - others will perhaps be able to give more info.

along with checking if the http jobs are running, maybe using this would
be an option to see if the port is listening...
