RE: olcMirrorMode FALSE - yet - error code 53 - shadow context; no update referral

[Albert Braden <abraden@about.com>]

cn=config overlays cannot be removed in OLC. I've heard that this ability may be added someday. In the meantime, the only way I know to remove a cn=config overlay is to switch back to the old slapd.conf format, remove the overlay, then convert back to OLC.

See http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201308/msg00000.html and http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200811/msg00103.html

I've attached that database's config earlier, nope no 
olcSyncrepl,
but I also mentioned there is something in the database 
which might be a remnant of past syncing:

DN: olcOverlay={0}syncprov,olcDatabase={2}bdb,cn=config

but cannot remove this entry
