Dear Prof. Blaha,

Thank you for your answer, actually, there are no unlimited restriction on the machines. I tested a sample case on multiple (a, b and c) machines which have the same installation of WIEN2K-12 (OS and software), they just differ in CPU, RAM and Diskspeed. The SCF was converged successfully in machine "c" but it was crashed in the first and third iteration of "a" and "b" machines respectively, because of insufficient virtual memory. Convergence successfully in one machine shows the input files are all right and there is no error in the binaries/rights.
So, I was wondering why it works in one machine and not in the other.

Best regards,
Salman

Eventually your sysadmin (or a special Linux version) has restricted
some resources for the users.

Use   limit   or   ulimit   commands to find out/set these values or ask
your sys-admin.

Dear Wien2k user,

Wien2k-12 is running in our machines which have enough memory as it is
clear below, however, all the jobs (even a very small one)are crashed in
LAPW2 either in k-point parallel or nonparallel mode thanks to
insufficient virtual memory. So, any helpful comments would be
appreciated in advance.

Regards,
Salman
