Unfortunately I can't help with amvault. I never was successful or happy 
with that tool.

In general I suggest you tell us more about which OS you use amanda with 
and something about your amanda configuration.

I went for defining multiple storages in amanda.conf.

Maybe useful for you as well.

Check the thread "Multiple storage-definitions, generating archive
