There isn't any guide to backup and restore but there are some documentation 
about the backups for each software.
OpenDNSSEC - 
https://wiki.opendnssec.org/display/DOCS/Key+Management#KeyManagement-Markingkeysasbackedup
SoftHSM - 
https://wiki.opendnssec.org/display/SoftHSMDOCS/SoftHSM+Documentation+Home#SoftHSMDocumentationHome-Backup

If your running MySQL there should be plenty of documentation on how to 
backup/restore on mysql.com or if your running SQLite it's basically just a 
database in a file so you could .dump it or copy it.

If you want to keep state in the backup the best bet is to shutdown OpenDNSSEC 
and copy everything in /etc/opendnssec and /var/opendnssec (or 
/var/lib/opendnssec, depending on your installation).
