[CODE4LIB] Batchload update records transfer from Millennium to OCLC
Does anyone have any experience transferring records from Millennium to OCLC for batch load updating? I need to transfer records and every time I try, the transfer fails. I have called OCLC and Millennium multiple times and neither have been able to help me. It is not an issue with a firewall. I really can't figure this out so any input would be greatly appreciated!!! Regards, Elisa

Are you trying to transfer directly from Mil to OCLC or are you downloading to your computer first? Also, what is the procedure you are using, and where does the failure take place (i.e. connecting to OCLC, logging in, transferring data, processing afterwards) kyle

Unfortunately, we are no longer part of IUG. I am trying to transfer directly from Mil to OCLC. The procedure I am using is from the OCLC Batchload support site here: http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/batchprocessing/using/FTPInnovativeinstructions.pdf Thanks!

I don't think you have to be a current IUG member to subscribe and post to the INNOPAC mailing list: http://innovativeusers.org/list/ Shirley On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 7:04 AM, Elisa Graydon wrote: > Unfortunately, we are no longer part of IUG.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Batchload update records transfer from Millennium to OCLC
A simple file transfer should not require such complicated looking instructions Have you identified where the process is breaking? For example, are you able to connect to OCLC? If so, can you authenticate and transfer a file? If the file transfers, have you transferred it to another place where you can verify that the file you're sending is good? BTW, Shirley is right. You do not need to be a member of IUG to participate on their list and view their archives. kyle On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 7:04 AM, Elisa Graydon wrote: > Unfortunately, we are no longer part of IUG.
