[Wien] parallel calc. without NFS

[Steven Homolya]

Dear all,

Is there any way of running either k-point parallel or MPI versions of 
Wien2k on a cluster of computers without using NFS? i.e., only using local 
hard disks of each node.

Our NFS is agonisingly slow and wien2k reads & writes often hang and data 
gets corrupted. If anyone has a hack for getting around this I'd 
appreciate it.

Steve

PS. It is not that it is a buggy NFS (at least that's what I'm told --- 
Tru64 Unix) but that there is a lot of traffic already.
