File is currently stuck in CA Spool database due to RACF message

Issue/Introduction

User changed a RACF USER ID and since then there is a file that they are looking to release but it is stuck in CA Spool.

We got RACF to give give the proper access for file. But when I tried to release it with A command via the panel but I see the same RACF message in the log. Do we have to recycle CA SPOOL Started task?

Below are the messages I see in the log:

ICH70001I userid   LAST ACCESS AT 11:49:59 ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 2021     
ICH408I USER(userid  ) GROUP(group ) NAME(name             )  308

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA Spool

Cause

Environmental problem.

Userid in question doesn't have authorization in RACF to create the temporary dataset required by the FTP driver.

Resolution

1) Grant permission for the owner of the file to create datasets with names matching the value of the parameter DSNAME of the FTP NODE. For example:
          DRIVPRM2='DSNAME=TEST.&UID.&NOD.&FNO.&TIM',

2) Release the file that had the problem or create a new file
