Deploying Packages
A package is an entry that contains published
reports and metadata. Packages are created in Framework Manager, the
modeling tool, and then published to IBM® Cognos® Connection.
Packages are stored in the content store and appear as entries in IBM Cognos Connection.
During a partial deployment, you can deploy one or more packages at a time. A package can reference objects that are outside the package, such as security objects, data sources, and distribution lists. However, referenced objects are not deployed with the package.
While you are importing, you can deselect packages in the deployment archive that you do not want to import.
