It's Neebula Discovery Language (NDL) script for pattern development.

Hi Mallikarjun,

Discovery pattern text script type is a  Neebula Discovery Language (NDL) for Pattern Development.

Check the below link:

Above are  good examples, but not complete by any means.

As mentioned above it's it's own language. Honestly you should never really modify it directly unless you are merging a bunch of steps in that for some reason didn't migrate up through an update set. It is however VERY beneficial to search all NDL for every pattern for specific keywords when looking for examples of how to do something and need to identifying which patterns do it.

Hi mallikharjunaswamyvutla,

Patterns, like probes and sensors, are a series of operations that also collect data on a host, process it, and update the CMDB. Patterns differ from probes and sensors in that they are written in Neebula Discovery Language (NDL) rather than JavaScript, and they are called into action in the later stages of the horizontal discovery process. Default patterns are provided, but you can also customize or create patterns using the Pattern Designer.

Please go through below link to get detail information about Patterns:
