We have shared dasd between our Prod & Test Lpars ever since we had

the Test Lpar, rather than keeping 2 copies. All production data
is only online normally on the Prod lpar.
Eric,
Count yourself lucky. Don't bury your head in the sand. The extra
cost (in overhead) is peanuts, IMO.
There is no excuse since GRS is free (or almost, ok a couple of bucks).
Sooner or later you will be burned.

Subject: Re: Share DASD and CA-MII
I have firmly believed, for over 15 years, if you are sharing DASD
you need GRS.
If you are sharing across PLEX's, you need MIM (not MII anymore).
Period. End of statement.
Many management types believe they are saving $$.
Until the first time something breaks!
It's the data, stupid!
