I can tell you that when you activate an on/off capacity upgrade on demand order, the processors that were status of "N" (not available) change to "-" (offline) in the display command, same is true when the capacity is removed. At least that is what I saw on a 2084 and 2094.
My theory would be that it is just a virtualized engine to begin with and you have more logical CPs than physical on that LPAR now. Do you notice any dispatching delays or performance impacts? Interesting... Perhaps you can check the Service Element CPs status. Sign in as SYSPROG and right-click on the processor. Select "CPs" in the menu. You can check if CP 03 is online from there.

The model number is correct. I think it odd that the upgrade instructions did not include any steps needed to completely consummate the change. My working theory is that a lot of this information is gathered at IPL and not refreshed. I also thought it odd that the operating system did not seem to notice a chance. Has virtualization gotten that good?

Is the model type that is returned from the D M=CPU command correct on that system? I would think (just a logical guess - so proceed at your own risk) that if you issued the CF CPU(03),OFFLINE it would go offline and the status of the CPU in the D M=CPU would change from + to N. You probably wanted to CF CPU(03),OFFLINE prior to conversion. I know that is part of the procedure when removing engines after using o/oCUoD. Don't forget to change your activation profile on the HMC to the correct number of initial CPs and deactivate/activate your LPAR(s) when you get a chance.
