<div>Dear QE users,<br clear="all"></div><div><br></div><div>I have a little question about calculation of dynamical matrices using ph.x code.</div><div>Calculations of dynamical matrices take much machine time, and not always I have enough machine time to complete calculations, and my calculation interrupted.</div>
<div>How can I restart my job with the interrupted step?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thank you!<br></div><div><br></div>-- <br><div>Sincerely yours</div><div><b>Alexander G.
