restart for sigma calculation

Post by wxiaom86 » Sat Jan 14, 2017 5:13 am

Dear all,
Is it possible to restart during the Sigma step of the GW calculations? I am calculating a metallic system and want to obtain the corrected Fermi level. I am using very dense k points (9*9*1) and large number of bands (2000). That is quite time-consuming. However, the server I am using does not support jobs lasting longer than two days, so I have to restart and resubmit my job after two days of calculation. So is there a practical way to solve this problem? Thanks a lot for
any suggestions.

Best,
