Here is a code sample demonstrating how to update service parameters after the service has been published.
#modify these to match your environment
serverHost = 'yourgisServer.com'
serverPort = 6080
serviceRelativePath = r'/services/serviceFolder/serviceName.MapServer'
username = 'yourAdminName'
password = 'yourAdminPW'
# properites you would like to apply to the service
newProperties = {
"minInstancesPerNode": 1,
"maxInstancesPerNode": 5,
"properties": {
"enableDynamicLayers": "true",
"dynamicDataWorkspaces": "[{\"id\":\"wsName\",\"workspaceFactory\":\"SDE\",\"lockVersion\":\"false\",\"workspaceConnection\":\"connectionProps\"}]"
}
}

else:
parentDict = v
_getPathsAndValuesFromModDict(modDict,inDict)
return inDict

httpConn = httplib.HTTPConnection(serverHost, serverPort)
httpConn.request("POST", tokenURL, params, headers)
response = httpConn.getresponse()
if (response.status != 200):
httpConn.close()
return
else:
data = response.read()
httpConn.close()
# Check that data returned is not an error object
if not _assertJsonSuccess(data):
return
# Extract the toke from it

return False

objParams['token'] = token

else:

try:
if output[0] == u'Authorization failed. This user account does not have the required privileges to access this application.':
return {'status':'error','msg':u'Authorization failed for user'}

#fetch the parameters using the admin api
serviceInfo = adminApiCall(serviceRelativePath,{'f':'json'})
#update new parameters using the new properties
serviceInfo = getUpdatedDict(serviceInfo,newProperties)
#apply the updated params
adminApiCall('/services/test/testForDave.MapServer/edit',{'f':'json','service':json.dumps(serviceInfo)})Modifying properties after the service is published is, in my opinion, easier than doing so via the sd or sddraft.
