Did you read slapd-meta about the uri directive:

"the directive
       suffix "dc=foo,dc=com"
       uri    "ldap://l1.foo.com/dc=foo,dc=com"; "ldap://l2.foo.com/";
causes  l2.foo.com  to be contacted whenever l1.foo.com does not
respond.  In that case, the URI list is  internally  rearranged,
by  moving  unavailable URIs to the end, so that further connec-
tion attempts occur with respect to the last URI that succeeded."


Or is this not, what you mean?
