ooops... forgot to include the group in the reply. Small update from yesterday's digest reading: you *can* reduce the individual CP MSUs when adding processors. The restriction, as others have indicated, is the reduction cannot be less than the purchased BASE ie. for our z12BC, K02->G04 (or some such mythical setting).

CBU is usually valid for 10 day test periods at a time for D/R tests before it becomes 'real'. For OOCoD, we make use of Capacity Provisioning Manager (which is part of zOS base) and then use our automation product to issue Capacity Provisioning Manager commands to change up/down our capacity markers. By using a combination of automation and CPM, you could accomplish what you want without much difficulty.
