I do not understand your .machines file. It is the worst possible setting you can make:
a) with a 2x2x2 k-mesh you have at most 8 k-points (or in your case 4 ??, depending on symmetry), so using more than 4 lines is absolute MEANINGLESS. b) The mpi-code has to use a different diagonalization routine, which is a priori almost 2 times slower than the sequential code. This when using 2 cores mpi-parallelization you are probably even slower than in sequential mode. c) As Fabien Tran pointed out, you should definitely test it with 1 kpoint first !!!!, or at least use the "reduced k-mesh" (1 k). d) As far as I can see, the system is metallic. Hybrid-DFT is quite bad for "real" metals. e) with 24 cores and 4 k-points a reasonable .machines file should have 4 lines with 1:localhost:6 Are you using Wien2k_14.2 ??? What is your $SCRATCH ??? Use SCRATCH=./ for security. Am 04.03.2015 um 01:21 schrieb Paul Fons:
Hi All, I am trying to run a hybrid functional calculation on a 96 atom system using PBE0. I successfully used a PBE functional using the test machines file below that is a hybrid k-point/MPI parallel job. While I posted a day ago about a failure due to missing ibz fbz files when I attempted to use the web interface, this time, I strictly used the terminal. The output is shown below. There were no problems with the fbz/ibz file generation, however, the run still terminated with an error. The error was that case.vectorhf_old was not found. I am not sure where this file show have been generated or why it was not. I expect this calculation to take some time to run and am planning on using 96-cores for the real PBE0 calculation, but at the moment, I am in troubleshooting mode. Does anyone have any idea of what might have gone wrong. I used a shifted 2x2x2 MP grid and 770 bands as I have 1536 electrons.
