Diagnostics:
Suggested User Display and Message Logging Using Bib-1 Diagnostic Set

CONTENTS

2. Messages - grouped by Response and Case

3. Messages - Numeric Sequence

1. Overview

The tables below indicate the messages that are appropriate for various Z39.50 responses with suggested displays to users. Clients are encouraged to take remedial steps where they are possible without displaying messages. It is recommended that clients log diagnostic messages, particularly those shaded (below), so that a system administrator can use it to:

identify origin and target software errors
refine origin parameters for the target
analyze user search behavior

Some messages are marked specifically "Do not display - origin should correct error". If the origin's program cannot correct the error, then the message "Protocol error (ref. {diagnostic number})" should be displayed, preceded by "Message received from {target name}".

Where there are no possible remedial steps, the client should clearly indicate the source of the message. This is particularly important in the case of multi-target searches. Example:

Message received from {target name}: Cannot sort by {sequence} (ref. 207)

In other cases, remedial steps involve the user in the reconstruction of the message. In this case, the message should be presented along with a list of valid options from which the user may choose. Example:

Message retrieved from {target name}: Cannot perform Periodic Query Schedule as requested (ref. 1057). Your choice was "fortnight". Please make a different selection - weekly, monthly, quarterly.

The suggested displays have been created for a user proficient in searching but not necessarily in Z39.50. The messages have been generalized, avoiding Z39.50 specific technical concepts, however the Bib-1 diagnostic message number has been included in brackets after the message, so that the actual message can be traced. If the client interface is aimed at novice searchers, then it is recommended that the messages be simplified further.
