The jobs are part of Agent Inventory feature on manager side.

Resolution

When a user requests any information from the agent using Agent Inventory, the manager sends a command job.  The job is to gather information and send it back to manager.  The jobs will normally have job name format will be like this:

Any ASI_<AGENTNAME> can be ignored as they are part of agent inventory commands issued by users on the client side.
