Dear M. Swaroop,
Did you compile siesta with a 64 bit compiler? I think you used
a 32 bit and you have overflown the number of grid points.
(64000 x829440 x984150= 7.05E17)
So you have to reduce the mesh cutoff and/or use a 64 bits compiler.
The system is really big, where you able to diagonalize
the hamiltoninan in a different CG step? If yes why it is rebuilding
the mesh, are you using variable cell CG?
For such a big system do you need so many kpoints?
Best regards,
Eduardo

Dear SIESTA Users,
We are facing an annoying problem for CG runs on a HPMPI intel
machine.
The siesta job runs fine for the first CG step and then crashes for
the
next step. On analysis we found an unreasonable value for MESH =
-460324864(large & -ve ) .
Could anybody help us out.
