I will defer to Simone here

We do not support hotplug. However, editing the VM in webadmin should
trigger a sync that distributes the new settings to all hosted engine
nodes. This might take a minute in normal case. A VM restart will then
pickup the new values.

Please attach the engine.log from the engine machine and agent log
from HE node if this does not work for you.

Best regards
