Support for IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services integration is accomplished via deployable .mrz, .dmz, or mtz packages (zip archives). A package is an executable element of UNICOM Intelligence; each package contains a primary .mrs or .dms script (that is utilized for execution entry), or an .mtd table document (that is used to generate reports).

mrs and .dms packages can include a set of internal scripts that support the primary script.

.mtz packages include an .mtd file and a configuration file for the .mtd.

UNICOM Intelligence Professional can store and retrieve deployable .mrz and .dmz packages from the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository, and open them for editing and/or debugging; UNICOM Intelligence Reporter/UNICOM Intelligence Reporter Desktop Edition can store and retrieve deployable .mtz packages from the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository, and open them for editing.

Packages stored in the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository are generated via the SPSS.DataCollection.ScriptPackager component. For more information about the SPSS.DataCollection.ScriptPackager component, see Script Packager Component Object Model“Script Packager Object Model” in the UNICOM Intelligence Developer Documentation Library.

When you store a package to the repository in UNICOM Intelligence Professional, the files that are defined in the output files definition are displayed in UNICOM Intelligence Professional’s Output panel.

You can view .dmz and .mrz files in UNICOM Intelligence Deployment Manager by associating the file extensions with a file compression utility such as Winzip, 7-Zip, and so on. This enables you to double-click the .dmz and .mrz files in UNICOM Intelligence Deployment Manager, and verify that the correct versions are stored in the repository.
