Dear Prof. Blaha, dear All, Thank you for your comments! /SCRATCH directories on the older cluster that I am using are usually quite full (in some cases perhaps can be solved by writing some emails asking people to delete old stuff). New harddisk solution is considered, hopefully will be

By choosing a local scratch directory (like /scratch or /tmp or ..., this depends on your computers, you can then add -scratch /scratch to all wien2k run or x commands) and using massively k-parallelism (on as many different nodes as possible, you can distribute these large case.vector_xx

Dear Gavin, Thank you for your comments. This is what I was afraid. I can glue output files by myself, no problem, hopefully they don't change the order of k-points. But one way to solve the disk-space issue would be to write a script that calculates SOC eigenvalues k-point by k-point. Then

From WIEN2k 18.2 UG page 126: WFFIL: standard option, writes wave functions to file case.vector (needed in lapw2) SUPWF: suppresses wave function calculation (faster for testing eigenvalues only) WFPRI: prints eigenvectors to case.output1 and writes case.vector (produces long outputs!) With

Dear All, dear Prof. Blaha, I used SUPWF in case.in1c to limit the size of output files. Then I used: x lapw1 -band -up -p -c x lapw1 -band -dn -p -c x lapwso -up -p -c There are no errors, but lapwso does not seem to calculate eigenvalues. I use 4 parallel cores, so I have 4 output files.

It seems that case.energy files (energyup/dn, energysoup) are not printed when using SUPWF option. Is that correct? Do I need to read eigenvalues from case.output files? Yes. I have another question: Can I limit the energy range when calculating bands for dense k-point mesh (e.g. only get

You can avoid the vector file by an option in case.in1. See UG On 05/15/2018 09:58 AM, Lukasz Plucinski wrote: Dear All, Could you let me know how to avoid saving huge vector files during dense mesh calculations? I am trying to do this for spin-polarized+SOC calculations. Perhaps someone

Dear All, Could you let me know how to avoid saving huge vector files during dense mesh calculations? I am trying to do this for spin-polarized+SOC calculations. Perhaps someone could share a script that would only save eigenvalues? Best, Lukasz
