Any STCs started without SUB=MSTR will need to be shutdown prior to JES2 being shutdown.
Mark's suggestions are the way to go. JES2 being abended is not as big a deal as it was in the olden days. And I think I read that JES2 in z/OS V1.8 should be stating what tasks are holding up the JES2 shutdown. I do not think in z/OS V1.7 JES2 does that yet. Also, if you have automation, you can have automation identify the tasks holding up JES2 shutdown but issuing the commands for you.
