Dear Cheng Pin Yen:
as a rough tuning, you can define spin on each atom directly in the InitSpin block of fdf input. One of your configurations is magnetic and the other not, so with a bit of luck you will be able to stabilize one and another of them. As a more sophisticated tuning, you can hack the density matrix, addressing individual (on-site) terms for each orbital, and pray that these configurations survive in subsequent self-consistent calculation with a prudent mixing. I wrote a tool http://www.home.uni-osnabrueck.de/apostnik/Software/DMtune.tar.gz which, as it is, does not allow to modify occupations of individual orbitals, but it can be easily changed in this sense, I think. Independently on this technical problem, and speaking about Ru ion, I wonder how reasonable your results will be without a spin-orbit...
