Description of problem:

It would be nice to have a backup task that backs up the database, and... config, certdb, and schema

See customer case https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/03369816

Specifically - useful to export the site specific data that are not past of the standard DS installation.

I just tried restoring using ldapadd an instance from a backed up LDIF made by dsconf backend export. 
The ACIs are not added.
This backup/restore facility should be able to create and restore an instance in a single command.
