Spanish term

memoria de registro / registro

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Computers: Software System texts for running robots.
Hi all,

Could someone please confirm that this should be "record memory", I'm a bit unsure as it could also be "log memory", "registry memory", amongst others. The client has told me that all instances of "registro" (which is the term giving me cause for doubt) are the same, but didn't explain the meaning.

Some examples, the text is just a load of alphabetically organised strings, so not much context I'm afraid:

"Borrado de memoria de registro cancelado con errores"
"¿Desea sobrescribir el registro %3 con el registro %4?"
"El registro %1 del archivo %2 no existe."

Thanks for any help.

I've seen that a similar term exists in the glossary, but I'm not convinced by "trapbuffer" for my context.

Here they use 'log file memory':

A new Log record configuration setting is available, which limits the amount of memory used for log file memory used to store monitored data during a user session. The value can be set between 5 and 99 megabytes. After this value is reached, current records stored in memory are written to an interim disk file and the memory is released. The interim disk file is used until the end of the session, when the log records are written to the main Resource Management log file (RMLDATA).

log (log file)

A log, in a computing context, is the automatically produced and time-stamped documentation of events relevant to a particular system. Virtually all software applications and systems produce log files.

record memory /record

I'd think I'd use "record in the examples above:

\"Borrado de memoria de registro cancelado con errores\"
\"¿Desea sobrescribir el registro %3 con el registro %4?\"
\"El registro %1 del archivo %2 no existe.\"

register or register memory

A processor register (CPU register) is one of a small set of data holding places that are part of the computer processor. A register may hold an instruction, a storage address, or any kind of data (such as a bit sequence or individual characters). Some instructions specify registers as part of the instruction.

Note from asker:
Thanks for your help Patricia, TBH I don't know which is more appropriate, but the client asked for "record".....
Peer comment(s):

agree philgoddard : I think this is all you can do with such limited context, which is not the asker's fault. It may not be the client's preferred term, but at least it's understandable.
