RACF permissions may be in storage (RACLISTed) but they aren't in the storage of the affected guests; they are in the RACFVM virtual machine. Recycling some other guest has no effect on RACF permissions. You would have to post the command you issued, the error message, and an RLIST ALL of the relevant VMMDISK profile.
