Editing a Desktop Pool

Edit desktop pool parameters after creating the desktop pool in Secure Desktops. Editing the desktop pool doesn't change all properties of existing desktops in the desktop pool. Only enabling or disabling device access policies takes effect immediately on existing desktops. Other settings require desktops to be disconnected and restarted.
