BIG YEAY! Thanks Paul!, it did work. The 20 records were properly replaced (as far as I quickly checked). perl /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -biblios -v -fk -all -commit 1000 -file=/home/nrucks/20recs-modified.mrc -match Other-control-number,035a Nicolas Rucks Biblioteca Central UBA-FCEN Argentina "Machines should not be friendly.

Hello again! Maybe this too easy, or too difficult, maybe I am missing a point. As I could manage to understand, bulkmarcimport.pl requieres "-match=" with a comma (,)
(From bulkmarcimport.pl DESCRIPTION:) -match=<FIELD> FIELD matchindex,fieldtomatch
Could anybody show me a concrete example of "matchindex" value? how should the command be?
The part before the comma has to be a field name, not a Z39.50 BIB-1 USE attribute number. So, for example, using ISBNs would be like this:
-match=isbn,020a
I figured out the field name for 035 $a once but have forgotten. control-number, maybe:
-match=control-number,035a
No, that doesn't seem to be it. Argh. I'll dig around in the Z39.50 config files.
It's Other-control-number: -match Other-control-number,035a Or at least I can search using that field name to find things by OCLC number. On the other hand, that appears to index 035 $z as well as 035 $a -- that could be a problem, since $z contains cancelled or invalid numbers. Here's how I found it: # fgrep 035 /etc/koha/zebradb/*/*/biblios/record.abs /etc/koha/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs:melm 035$a Other-control-number /etc/koha/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs:melm 035$z Other-control-number /etc/koha/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs:melm 035 Other-control-number /etc/koha/zebradb/marc_defs/normarc/biblios/record.abs:#melm 035 Local-number,Identifier-standard Paul. -- Paul Hoffman <paul@flo.org> Software Manager Fenway Library Organization 550 Huntington Ave. Boston, MA 02115 (617) 442-2384 (FLO main number) _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
