Two questions:
1. Interested in testing a Shared iPad configuration on an new iPad.  But how do I undo it once testing done - convert back to standard ipad. 

2. How to I convert an existing ipad to a shared ipad, it has already been enrolled in Jamf at a normal configuration.  All the documentaiton refer to new imports from ASM, not converting an existing iPad..

It depends on the Prestage Enrolment the devices go through. In Jamf pro you will need to go to Devices > PreStage Enrollments. Create a new prestage enrolment with the shared iPad settings then add the test iPad to the scope of this prestage enrolment. Wipe the iPad and then go through the setup process. The Prestage Enrolment settings will force the iPad to have the settings you choose.

 

A device can only belong to one prestage enrolment so you will need to un-assign it from it's current one to assign it to a new one. So once you finished testing your shared iPad, wipe it and move to the other Prestage Enrolment.
