Are you using a separate volume per job? In that case, you could simply forego a copy job altogether and just copy the disk files themselves. 100 years from now, you may have a problem simply reading the database. So it may be easier and better to just rely on the files themselves. Write a shell script that figures out which files to copy (possibly using SQL queries in the process) and renames them to something meaningful at the same time.

Twice a week a Full backup and 5 times a week an incremental. Every day is a different pool, so the tape drives won't interfere with the backup to disk and vice versa. We write the data to tape using a copy job. The tapes have a retention of 30 days. Now we want to archive some data forever. Lets say 100 years. The thought was, since we already have the data on disk I wanted to use a second copy job to copy the data to a separate pool, where we use a Migrate job to move the data to a different tape set. So what I basically want is that data is copied on a daily basis to pool_a and once a month to pool_a and pool_b. I can't figure out how to configure this. I don't know if it is even possible. Can anyone help me with this?
