NAME
radsqlrelay - relay SQL queries to a central database server
SYNOPSIS
radsqlrelay [-d sql_driver] [-b database] [-f file] [-h host] [-u user] [-p password] [-1] file_path
DESCRIPTION
radsqlrelay tails a SQL logfile and forwards the queries to a database
server. Used to replicate accounting records to one (central) database,
even if the database has extended downtime.
The SQL logfile is created by the rlm_sql_log module. The module must be configured in the radiusd server before you can use radsqlrelay.

(CONNECT_DATA =(SERVICE_NAME = <DB SID>)))
