IMHO, the clue to this is in his printout.
PGM=FTPD,REGION=0M,TIME=NOLIMIT,PARM='POSIX(ON) ALL31(ON)/TRACE PORT 990'
IEF043I Actions taken by SMFLIMxx parmlib policy for FTPSD FTPD
Step MEMLIMIT set to ONOUDONT by policy - SMFLIM00 0002
So, it looks some exit is killing the task because he has REGION=0M.
The SMFLIMxx policy is killing the task (ONOUDONT).
