Create a backup of DTR
## Usage
```bash
docker run -i --rm docker/dtr \
backup [command options] > backup.tar
```
## Description
This command creates a tar file with the contents of the volumes used by
DTR, and prints it. You can then use the 'restore' command to restore the data
from an existing backup.
Note:
* This command only creates backups of configurations, and image metadata.
It doesn't backup users and organizations. Users and organizations can be
backed up when performing a UCP backup.
It also doesn't backup the Docker images stored in your registry.
You should implement a separate backup policy for the Docker images stored
in your registry, taking in consideration whether your DTR installation is
configured to store images on the filesystem or using a cloud provider.
* This backup contains sensitive information and should be
stored securely.

| `--debug` | $DEBUG | Enable debug mode for additional logs. |
| `--existing-replica-id` | $DTR_REPLICA_ID | The ID of an existing DTR replica.To add, remove or modify DTR, you must connect to an existing healthy replica's database.. |
