To update a shared custom attribute programmatically using the Managed Code C# Snippet, do the following:

For example, you have defined a shared custom process attribute called "Something" in Enterprise Manager. You set the value of the shared custom process attribute in Enterprise Manager. You now want to use a Managed Code C# Snippet to dynamically change the value of the shared custom process attribute "Something".

The following is the syntax to update the value of the shared custom process attribute "Something".
