optimize the cell  [SOLVED]

Post by aria » Thu Jun 29, 2017 8:34 pm

Hello every one,
When I run the program to optimize the unit cell:
.......................................
.......................................
#Optimization of the lattice parameters
occopt 7
tsmear 0.00099
angdeg 90 90 120
spgroup 194
AUTOPARAL 1
Chksymbreak 0
optcell 2
ionmov 2
ntime 400
dilatmx 1.05
ecutsm 0.5
.....................................
.....................................
I have the following warning:
==========================
-- !WARNING
src_file: vtorho.F90
src_line: 1515
message: |
For k-point number 97,
The minimal occupation factor is 0.219.
An adequate monitoring of convergence requires it to be at most 0.01_dp.
Action: increase slightly the number of bands.
======================================
What is it and how can I solve it?
Thanks a lot for your help and time.

hello friend


try to use a large value for nbands. and rerun the code.
