Is there a write-up on using amvault with an archive config?

Amazing, I've used amanda for about 25 years and never set up
an archive config nor used amvault.  No time like the present
as I setup a new server with increased capacity.

I don't want an archive config that does periodic massive
dumps.  Instead I'd prefer that on-demand I could copy a
level 0 DLE to the archive in such a way that amrecover/
amrestore could use the archive config.  Both the source
and the archive destination would be vtapes but on
different drives in different housings.

I "think" that amvault would be the appropriate tool.
If not, correct my error please.

Has anyone done a write-up on setting up and using such
a scheme?

Thanks,
Jon
