Wien2k will by default always use the smallest possible unit cell.

Eg. for a fcc Cu cell (F -attice), you have only one atom (0,0,0), but if you
want to run this in a simple cubic lattice (P lattice, identical lattice 
parameters),
you would have 4 atoms (+(0.5,0.5,0) and permutations).
However, w2k does NOT allow such a calculation with 4 EQUIVALENT atoms.
If you still want to use a P cell with FOUR atoms, you have to make them
NON_EQUIVALENT. You can do this eg. by naming the atoms  Cu1, Cu2, Cu3 and Cu4.

Now the same happens for your problem. The "R" cell is 3 times smaller than the
"H" setting. If you want to use the H lattice, you must make some/all atoms
non-equivalent by the method explained above.

PS: Do you know "why" you want the H setting ?
It makes only sense for E-tot comparison with different phases (in "real" 
H-cells)
or when you want to do impurities, vacancies,... (although than the cell is 
still
too small).

I want to run sm metal in hexagonal axes, as Prof. Cottenier said, the
file struct should be as below;

You asked for the hexagonal information -- which you got. This does define the 
correct lattice, and wien2k can read/understand this, but cannot work with such 
a structure
file as such. As said before (see usersguide), for rhombohedral lattices you 
have to give the hexagonal lattice constant but rhombohedral coordinates. 
During init_lapw,
sgroup will make this conversion for you. If you accept its suggestion (which 
has only 3 atoms), dstart will run fine.

I make this structure, but when i initialized it, the new error in
dstart is obsearved as
Error in DSTART
  'ROTDEF' - no symmetry operation found.
  'ROTDEF' - for jatom, index   1   2
  'ROTDEF' - atomposition of jatom   0.0000000   0.0000000   0.0000000
  'ROTDEF' - atomposition of index   0.6666667   0.3333333   0.3333333
Please let me know, how can i solve it?
