<body class='hmmessage'>Dear all,<BR>
 <BR>
Thank you for <EM>Lorenzo Paulatto's </EM>reply. I have done the 'scf' calculation with the default<BR>
disk_io. And the projwf.x calculation could be done smoothly. But the nscf calculation was <BR>
still something wrong. The nscf output file still with a warning that<BR>
     Band Structure Calculation<BR>     Davidson diagonalization with overlap<BR>     WARNING:    14 eigenvalues not converged<BR>
Than I thought this may because of the gamma point calculation. So I changed the k-point<BR>
mesh to 2X2X1. But the cholesky decomposition problem occurred during the nscf calculation.<BR>
 <BR>
To better understand the problem, I'll give my input file for nscf calculation. the coordinate is <BR>
from the previous relax calculation.<BR>

By the way, I use the 5 CPUs with 20 cores for the calculation.<BR>
The job is big, I can't test it with serial instead of parallel. <BR>

How could I handle this. Thank you for reading.<BR><BR>
