An easy way to handle this that doesn't involve database clustering is to 
have your secondary radius accounting server not write accounting data to 
sql,  but rather to relay all packets it receives back to the primary using 
radrelay. If they primary is down, the packets should be queued, and 
delivered when it comes back up.
