Try adding literally what is suggested, i.e. “-pd .true.” Best, Lorenzo Bastonero Inviato da iPhone Il giorno 9 nov 2022, alle ore 15:08, Elio Physics <[email protected]> ha scritto: Dear all, I have been running some calculations on a supercomputer with some constraints on the number of processors I can run QE. I am faced with the error: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Error in routine fft_type_set (6): there are processes with no planes. Use pencil decomposition (-pd .true.) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% How do I tell the code to use the pencil decomposition? I have tried adding -pd to the 'mpirun' an adding use_pd=.true. in the PW inout but in vain. Thanks in advance Elie Moujaes Adjunct professor Federal University of Rondonia Brazil. _______________________________________________ The Quantum ESPRESSO community stands by the Ukrainian people and expresses its concerns about the devastating effects that the Russian military offensive has on their country and on the free and peaceful scientific, cultural, and economic cooperation amongst peoples _______________________________________________ Quantum ESPRESSO is supported by MaX (www.max-centre.eu) users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.quantum-espresso.org/mailman/listinfo/users D
