As Chris said, a UCS is a tar archive, but I've had difficulties in the past trying to edit a file and rebuild the UCS archive. If you try it and it doesn't work, you could potentially use a single configuration file instead.
Keep in mind that if you copy a UCS from one unit to another with a different host name, only the shared configuration will be loaded during a 'b config install'. So the existing license and bigip_base.conf would be preserved. This should be a cleaner solution than manually editing the UCS files.
