[Wien] Problems with hybrid calculations: case.vectorhf_old file missing

I have an update and some questions on hybrid calculations on a 96 atom cluster.  I am running my initial tests with two 24 core machines connected by Infiniband.  I have included 4 k-points using a 2x2x2 MP grid.  My .machines file is as below.

lapw0:localhost:12
1:localhost:12
1:localhost:12
1:draco-ib:12
1:draco-ib:12
granularity:1
extrafine:1


 I have done a conventional PBE calculation on the same cluster using the above .machines file and the calculation finished without errors in a few hours.  I then initialized a hf calculation using lapw_hf_lapw and specified the same 2x2x2 grid.  I specified 770 bands in my case.inhf as I have 1526 electrons.  The initialize ran without errors.  I then invoked the scf loop using “run_lapw -hf -p” using the same machines file.  The lapw0 and the initial part of the scf loop appears to have run without errors, but the calculation stopped on the second iteration of the SCF loop.  In particular, the second loop failed due to a missing file "/home/matstud/WIENSCRATCH/aCGT.vectorhf_old STATUS: old”.  Before I continue, I should add that the WIENSCRATCH environmental variable is correctly set and the directories on both machines exist.  I should add that of course the regular parallel PBE run ran without errors as well and I assumed it used the same scratch directories without error.  The file in question “aCGT.vectorhf_old” does not exist in either of the WIENSCRATCH directories nor does it exist in the home directory of the calculation.  The two nodes are gemini (localhost) and draco-ib (the infini-band connected second node).  The contents of the scratch directories on both nodes are listed below as well as the files with vector within the files on the project directory.   The current calculation only involves four k-points and I have been careful not to limit the number of MPI jobs to four.  I have done the calculation twice now with the same errors.  The first time, I tried it immediately after a successful PBE calculation while the second time I tried it after deleting all of the files in the WIENSCRATCH directory thinking it the file error could have been caused by filename confusion.  The end result was the same (reprinted below).  The run stops because the file aCGT.vectorhf_old cannot be found.  Are there any suggestions as to what I might try next to solve the problem?  Thanks in advance for any help.



The actual run output went as follows:

run_lapw -hf -p -in1new 2
