If you only want to do synchronized replication than you should remove
mirrormode, otherwise you have to define a server ID and remove
updateref. For more information on mirrormode see
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html#MirrorMode

If you only want to test the funtionallity of syncrepl just add an
entry to the provider and search this entry on the consumer.
