Working with IBM SPSS Modeler streams

This section describes IBM® SPSS® Modeler streams within the context of IBM SPSS Deployment Manager. IBM SPSS Modeler streams are brought into Deployment Manager fully formed. For more detailed information on how to create and work with streams, refer to the IBM SPSS Modeler documentation.

You can work with IBM SPSS Modeler streams in Deployment Manager. Like any other step, an IBM SPSS Modeler stream must be added to a job before you can execute it using Deployment Manager. Specifically, you can perform the following tasks:

Importing streams
Modifying stream parameters
Executing streams

Note: If you have a job containing an SPSS Modeler stream that uses an Analytic Server source node, you must allow a direct connection between the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Server and Analytic Server. Otherwise, the job will fail if the firewall blocks the connection between the two servers.
