If you keep the c axis and the Bravais lattice fixed, you do not need to
perform variable-cell structural optimization: just do a few
calculations with (slightly) different in-plane lattice parameter(s).
In any event, please provide the test that doesn't work: I want to get
rid of the "not enough space" error, am quite close to it, and may need
a test

Dear Pietro,
I am sorry. By mistake I said that my material is two dimensional.
Rather it has a layered structure. There will be relaxation along
z-direction also in the thin layer of the atoms. However to have a
layered structure, c-axis is set to be large and made fixed by
cell_dofree = 'ibrav + c'
What would be the solution in that case? Please help.
With regards,
pabitra

Hello
This happens when the volume of the cell changes too much during the
relaxation.
The best route would be to input the values of the in-plane lattice
constant as close to real ones as possible, being this a 2D
material, to avoid any relaxation along the z direction. This can
be done by adding the
cell_dofree='2dxy'
in the &cell namelist
hope this helps
best regards
Pietro

allocated for radial FFT...
Dear All,
I was doing vc-relax of a carbon based 2D system with 12 carbon
atoms. The program ran and stopped after giving an error message
following:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Error in routine scale_h (1):
Not enough space allocated for radial FFT: try restarting with
a larger cell_factor.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
stopping ...
I did not have 'cell_factor' in the input file. I restarted vc_relax
with lattice parameter larger than the expected actual cell. But I
got the same error again.
Please help...
