Of course, the syntax is the same for .machines and .machines_x optimize_abc uses the following strategy: scf-cycle for a0b0c0 , uses .machines parallel calculation of 9 cases, namely a0+-delta,b0,c0 (2 sequential scf cycles each) a0,b0+-delta,c0 . Each of these 9 cases uses its own

Dear Peter, Well, now with the command: optimize_abc_lapw -t 3 -n 1 -p -j "run_lapw -p -ec 0.0001 -cc 0.001 » I have the weird behaviour that each program seems to be executed on one core only! I asked for 2 nodes/256 cores. In the case.dayfile I can read: lapw0 -p (21:53:37) running lapw0 in

What you need is always to finish a complete "step" (19 scf cycles, which can be done highly parallel). optimize_abc -n 1 . would do this. This command can be repeated until you find convergence. (If it crashes after more than 1 step, you can still continue, but all calculations after a

Dear all, I am optimizing an orthorhombic structure with optimize_abc (wien2k_21). As the structure is big I suspect the job will not finish before the queue reaches the CPU time limit of 24 hours. The command I use is: optimize_abc_lapw -t 3 -p -j "run_lapw -p -ec 0.0001 -cc 0.001 -fc 1.0 -min
