Exporting data from TADDM

It's very simple to extract data from Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM), using Tivoli Directory Integrator (TDI) and the TADDM Connector, available at:

TADDM Connector at Tivoli OPAL

Using the TADDM Connector, you just specify the TADDM configuration information (host name, user, password, CI type), then drag and drop the fields into the desired Connector (for example, a CSV file, using the FileSystem Connector).
