Simple solution:

Do a full backup of those files to a tape in your tapecycle.

Mark it as "no-reuse" with

amadmin <conf> no-reuse <TAPE-LABEL>

You can browse it via amrecover, but AMANDA will not ask for that tape
again for a dump. This is a common solution for doing things like
monthly-archive-tapes or similar things.

Better solution:

Setup a config for archiving, with dumpcycle 0, record no, and put
your files onto the tapes of this config.
