Dear All,

 �

I am a beginner to DFT and I want to perform a SCF and DOS calculations using 
meta-GGA SCAN function. Before these (SCF and DOS) calculations, I want to do a 
“vc-relax” calculation but when I start “vc-relax” using SCAN, I get an error 
that says like, stress calculation is not possible for spin polarized SCAN 
function. So seems like I have to do “vc-relax” without SCAN and after 
“vc-relax” I can use SCAN function for SCF and DOS calculation. Since output of 
“vc-relax” is sensitive to pseudopotential and exchange function type, what 
type of pseudopotential and exchange function I should use for “vc-relax” in 
this case or is there any way to perform spin polarized “vc-relax” calculations 
using SCAN? I am using QE version 6.3
