+= The redundant Statement
+
+.Syntax
+[source,unlang]
+----
+redundant {
+ [ statements ]
+}
+----
+
+The `redundant` section executes a series of statements in sequence.
+As soon as one statement succeeds, the rest of the section is skipped.
+
+[ statements ]:: One or more `unlang` commands. Processing starts
+from the first statement in the list.
++
+If the selected statement succeeds, then the server stops processing
+the `redundant` section. If, however, that statement fails, then the
+next statement in the list is chosen. This process continues until
+either one statement succeeds or all of the statements have failed.
++
+All of the statements in the list should be modules, and of the same
+type (e.g., `ldap` or `sql`). All of the statements in the list should
+behave identically, otherwise different requests will be processed
+through different modules and will give different results.
+
+In general, we recommend using the
+xref:redundant-load-balance.adoc[redundant-load-balance] statement
+instead of `redundant`.
+
+.Example
+[source,unlang]
+----
+redundant {
+ sql1
+ sql2
+ sql3
