Dear Molpro-Users, Is there a way to write a molpro input deck so that a job will restart from the last geometry point in an optimization if the job is restarted, without creating a whole new input deck with a new geometry? Can MolPro be told to override the GEOMETRY specification if geometry information exists on a WFN file? Alternatively, can a put command be issued within an 'optg' job such that the geometry info is put into a file that can be then read in using a GEOMETRY=file command contained within an if construct that determines if newer geometries exist? If so, what variable should be used to trigger the 'if' condition? Would ITERATIONS be the most appropriate?
For context on this question, I am running MolPro jobs on a shared cluster, and have been advised by the cluster admin. team that restricting the walltime of the batch-submitted jobs will save me (and them) time and effort. Thus, I am looking to automate the restarting of molpro geometry optimizations via a self-resubmitting shell script, such that I do not have to manually resubmit the jobs to the queue.
