It always reads the geometry, and the geometry history too for bfgs algorithm. It also reads the last charge density (which may be from an half completed scf cycle) and, if available, the last wavefunctions. > Would it possible to restart a job from the previous geometry instead > of the the wave function? Yes, you have to set startingwfc='whatever', remember to unset it afterward. Or you can copy the last geometry by hand and change the prefix or clean the tmp. > Can I do both of them? I'm not sure I understand what you mean here, if you mean "can I restart from both the last geometry and the last wfcs," then it is the default behaviour. cheers -- Lorenzo Paulatto SISSA & DEMOCRITOS (Trieste) phone: +39 040 3787 511 skype: paulatz www: http://people.sissa.it/~paulatto/ *** save italian brains *** http://saveitalianbrains.wordpress.com/
