Dear Christoph Wolf, Thanks for your reply. The RAM size in my our department workstation is 32 GB. I will also try to use small jobs.
The commands I used are [Dell@centos7 ~]$ /lib64/openmpi/bin/mpirun -np 24 /home/Dell/qe-6.3/bin/ph.x </home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/ph.in> /home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/ph.out^C [Dell@centos7 ~]$ /lib64/openmpi/bin/mpirun -np 24 /home/Dell/qe-6.3/bin/ph.x </home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/ph.in> /home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/ph.out ^Cmpirun: abort is already in progress...hit ctrl-c again to forcibly terminate The following is my input I used for pw.x and ph.in. Below the input file I have added few lines of output of ph.x also. &CONTROL title = 'anat' , calculation = 'scf', restart_mode = 'from_scratch' , wf_collect = .true., prefix = 'anatase', outdir ='/home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/tmp', pseudo_dir = '/home/Dell/phonon/pseudo', tstress = .true. , tprnfor = .true. ,/ &SYSTEM ibrav = 7, A = 3.7547, C = 9.1960, nat = 6 , ntyp = 2 , ecutwfc = 90 , ecutrho = 900/ &ELECTRONS conv_thr = 1.D-16 / ATOMIC_SPECIES Ti 47.86700 Ti.pz-mt_fhi.UPF O 15.99940 O.pz-mt_fhi.UPF ATOMIC_POSITIONS (angstrom) Ti -0.000000000 0.000000000 0.000000000 Ti 0.000000000 1.877350549 2.299006742 O 0.000000000 0.000000000 -1.937981509 O -0.000000000 -0.000000000 1.937981509 O -0.000000000 1.877350549 0.361025232 O 0.000000000 1.877350549 4.236988251 K_POINTS automatic 8 8 8 0 0 0 -------------------------------------------- phonons of anatase &inputph tr2_ph=1.0d-12, prefix='anatase', ldisp=.true., amass(1)=47.86700, amass(2)=15.99940, outdir ='/home/Dell/phonon/relaxed/tmp', fildyn='ana.dyn', nq1=4, nq2=4, nq3=4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ output Program PHONON v.6.3MaX starts on 8Oct2018 at 12:41:19 This program is part of the open-source Quantum ESPRESSO suite for quantum simulation of materials; please cite "P.

And the program at terminal was blinking as program is running. Before I get this error, I also find for my earlier run that after ph.x output is created for anatase, q2r.x wasn't run for small number of k point in scf and small number of kpoint in ph.in. I will try to run again for anatase as you suggested for small system. Yours Sincerely, A.Suresh, Research Scholar, School of Physics, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai.
