The short answer is, to my knowledge there is no built-in capability to
cause a volume to be moved into a specified pool upon completion of a job.

Now, you can leave volumes in the scratch pool and have them moved from
there into a specified new folder BEFORE running a job.  And you can
have volumes moved into a specified scratch pool when recycled.  But if
you want to trigger a pool change on job *completion*, I believe you're
going to have to script it yourself as a RunAfterJob event.
