-`<source-store>` would be e.g. `accounts` or `private`
+`<source-store>` would be e.g. `accounts` or `private`. To migrate
+archives, the optional suffix `<store-type>` would be set to `archive`,
+so e.g. `archive2-archive` or `muc_log-archive`.
 
 `<target-driver>` is the storage driver to copy data to, sans the
 `mod_storage_` prefix.
 
 The process is something like this:
 
-1.  Decide on the future configuration and add this to your prosody
-    config.
+1.  Decide on the future configuration and add for example SQL
+    connection details to your prosody config, but don't change the
+    `store` option yet.
 2.  With Prosody shut down, run
     `prosodyctl mod_migrate example.com accounts sql`
 3.  Repeat for each store, substituting 'accounts'. E.g. vcards,
     private...
-4.  Change the `storage` configuration to use the new driver.
+4.  Change the [`storage` configuration](https://prosody.im/doc/storage)
+    to use the new driver.
 5.  Start prosody again.

+Examples
+========
