See:
http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#configuring_an_archive_host

An 'archive host' is just a special configuration in the backuppc
server so you can use the same navigation approach as for real hosts
in the web interface, but instead of making a new backup, it lets you
pick existing backups and output a tar archive to your configured
device or location.   But if you want to control it from cron or the
command line it is probably easier to just use the backuppc_tarCreate
program directly.
