You can issue UPDATE STGPOOL poolname RECLAIM=100 to turn it off, and
UPDATE STGPOOL poolname RECLAIM=<n> to turn it on (<n> is less than 100).

You can't redirect output from a command when it is issued from the ADSM
server console. You must do it from the admin client. If you want to automate
on MVS, you can execute the TSO Admin client from a TSO batch job, from which
you can redirect the output with the -OUTFILE option of the DSMADMC program.
The JCL is pretty much the same as the JCL you use when you log on to TSO
interactively, except you run it in batch. SYSTSIN data is the DSMADMC command
followed by options and the admin command you want to run, i.e.

   DSMADMC -ID=<id> -PAS=<password> -OUTFILE='<dataset>' Q DB F=D
