Look through the documentation/tutorials that turn out to be quite helpful to 
understand basic features of the code.

An example of magnetic calculation is in PW/examples/example01 (see the 
spin-polarized calculation for nickel).

As you will see, you must use the variables nspin and starting_magnetization to 
drive the system out of the local, spin-unpolarised minimum.
If your system is magnetic, the output file will show you final values of the 
total and/or absolute magnetisation different from zero.
