In my earlier try I had a incorrectly specified .machines file now I have addressed this problem. I also changed the SCRATCH environment variable to “./“ so that it points to the main directory for the calculation. I have run a PBE SCF loop to normal terminal for an amorphous cluster of 96 atoms of Cu-Ge-Te. I then ran the init_hf script and after setting the number of bands to 770 for my 1526 electron system, I set the MP grid to 2x2x2 for a total of four k-points. I then ran the command "run_lapw -hf -p -in1new 2”. The SCF loop ran through lapw0, lapw1, lapw2, core, and then crashed at the program hf. The MPI processes upon crashing reported the following error:<br class=""><br class="">forrtl: severe (67): input statement requires too much data, unit 26, file /usr/local/share/wien2k/Fons/aCGT/aCGT.weighhf<br class=""><br class="">I have no idea why the program failed this time. I am using the Intel compiler (15) and the Intel MPI environment (e.g. mpiexec.hydra) to launch parallel programs as can be seen in the “parallel_options” file. The only *.error files are those like “hf_1.error” to “hf_4.error” which contain the not particularly useful information “error in hf”. So the error occurred in the routine “hf”.
