Dear Nick, Thanks for your reply.
The batach job sctript only make a copy one the master node. So it is not simple to create an empty files on the other nodes. I will wait the bug fixed to run it parallelly on many nodes. At the moment I will run it only on one only, which should wait for a longer time in the queue. Withe best regards.

The code checks (for all nodes) whether a file corresponding to the electrode TSHS file exists and kiils the job if not. A simple work-around for the time being is to create an empty file. It is only the master node which does the reading/writing anyway. You should simply do a touch on the file on all nodes, no need to copy the entire TSHS file. Kind regards Nick 2013/10/29 zgp121 <zgp...@126.com> Dear Transiesta and TBtrans users: I noticed that during the calculation of the Green's function for the leads, the I/O nodes are not only the master node in trunk-444. Becasue I want to parallel the executables on several nodes, also I want to improve the I/O performance, so I copy the files to the local storage of the master node. But the executable complains that there is no TSHS files. So I guess, the nodes other than the master node need to read the TSHS files. Is that true? If so, if I want use the local storage, I should do the parallel on one nodes. With best regards. Yours Guangping Zhang 2013-10-29
