As far as I know that is not true.  The appl env. asid is created on demand.
It also depends on your DB2 configuration, the WLM definitions, and what
the application environment(s) are used for (utilities,  user function, etc.).  
I know some of ours are never started unless the DB2 folks do something
to start them (like one that refreshes the environment).  If defined in WKM
as 1 per sysplex it won't start on all members.  If your DB2 is single 
system in scope (even if in a sysplex) it will never do that.

I'm not a DB2 expert so I can't say too much more from the DB2 point of
view.     Perhaps there is a DB2 expert lurking that can explain / clarify.
