The first DLA for the product formerly known as Netcool/Precision now known as Tivoli Network Manager IP v3.7. Note that they don’t mention this is also used to integrate with TBSM 4.1 if you don’t have the TADDM/CCMDB product (always the preferred integration path).

This Discovery Library Adapter (DLA) extracts network resource and relationship data from the IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition (Network Manager IP) Network Connectivity and Inventory Model database and generates an output XML file that can be loaded into the IBM Configuration Management Database (CMDB) in the Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM) product.
Network Manager IP data in TADDM’s CMDB enables consuming applications, such as IBM Change and Configuration Manager to locate network resources discovered by Network Manager IP(such as network routers) in a TCP/IP network, understand their role in the network infrastructure and diagnose any problems on these network resources. This helps operators and network engineers to resolve network outages and provides service assurance for configuration and change management.
This integration also allows Nework Manager users to view a network resources configuration changes over time and isolate changes that may have created network outages.
