As part of an emergency failover situation, I was attempting to change a

"Server is unwilling to perform (53)" error. Can this be accomplished
dynamically or do I have to make the changes while slapd is not executing?
Not sure about the reason of this error, but it is not removing the syncprov overlay that you promote a producer to consumer. You need to add an olcSyncrepl attribute containing the appropriate replications stanza to that database, leaving in place the syncprov overlay entry.
