            <command>sss_override</command> enables to create a client-side

            Overrides data are stored in the SSSD cache. If the cache is deleted,
            all local overrides are lost. Please note that after the first
            override is created using any of the following
            <emphasis>user-add</emphasis>, <emphasis>group-add</emphasis>,
            <emphasis>user-import</emphasis> or
            <emphasis>group-import</emphasis> command. SSSD needs to be
            restarted to take effect.
            <emphasis>sss_override</emphasis> prints message when a restart is
            required.
