Are you using `org-agenda-custom-commands' variable? You can specify
different sets of agenda files for different commands.

There is an `org-agenda-text-search-extra-files' variable, which when
bound, adds to the existing agenda files, and has a special value
'agenda-archives, which means all the .org_archive files with same
name as agenda files.

So assuming you have your regular org-agenda-files set to your
"minimum" universe, you can define extra searches like so:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("/" "Occur with archives"
         ((search ""
                  ((org-agenda-text-search-extra-files '(agenda-archives))))))
        ("k" "Occur with archives + knowledge base"
         ((search ""
                  ((org-agenda-files (cons "~/kb/" org-agenda-files))
                   (org-agenda-text-search-extra-files '(agenda-archives))))))
                  ))

This will make C-c a / search your normal agenda files, plus their
archives, and C-c a k will in addition search all org files and their
archives in ~/kb/ directory.
