Restarting this kind of code is always a bit tricky, because it requires checking at any point that all output is consistent and has been correctly written to disk. In my experience, it is so slow that it is preferable to not do restart at all.

What I recommend, is learn (from the examples) how to split the calculation over on atoms and q-points, which will allow you to run each step without stopping, and potentially much faster if you run them at the same time on different computing nodes.

Hello QE users.
My running time cluster is 342000 seconds.
I want to use theĀ  max_seconds option in hp.x to resume my calculation after theĀ  running time cluster is finished. Is it enough to put only max_seconds=341000 in the input file and run it with hp.x?
I used max_seconds=341000 in my input, but my job did not stop smoothly.
Could any one help me with this?
