[Pw_forum] write access problem during MPI run on the server

2013-06-10 Thread Denis Davydov
Dear all, I experience a strange problem while running pw.x on our server. I connect to it via: ssh -X -p 1234 user at server I definitely have write access to a folder where i compile QE. However, when i run it i get: task # 0 from diropn : error #10 error openi

[Pw_forum] [100] surface relaxation of Al

2013-05-07 Thread Denis Davydov
Dear Prof. Marzari, Thanks for your reply. I will use the sampling you suggested. With regards to "right/wrong", after some literature review i would say the results are rather correct. The interlayer distance change during surface relaxation could indeed be non-monotonous, as was shown, for

[Pw_forum] [100] surface relaxation of Al

2013-05-05 Thread Denis Davydov
Dear all, while learning how QE works, i'm trying to relax ion positions at the [100] surface of FCC Aluminum. Looking at Exercise 4 of day1, QE workshop (2012), i made an input file to relax ion position (starting from ideal) while keeping 2 layers fixed in the "bulk" (asymmetric slab model

[Pw_forum] compile as a C++ library (prototype)

2013-04-08 Thread Denis Davydov
Dear all, After some trial and error, following advices given here, i come up with the solution on how to make a c++ library from PW with a controllable MPI communicator. Everything compiles fine with a small example, but i did not yet implement passing input file name. In a hope that it wil

[Pw_forum] fix ions during relaxation / compile as a library?

2013-04-04 Thread Denis Davydov
Dear users, I have two questions: 1) I've been studying documentation, in particular of CP package, but could not find any way to fix positions of certain (some of all) ions during relaxation. In other words, exclude those from optimization. Is it currently possible? 2) is it possible to comp
