Before you can split the job over q points and representations,<br>
you have to copy PREFIX.save (which is generated by scf calculation)<br>
to each sub directories where you want to do the ph calculation separately.<br>
If the system is slightly large (more 20 atoms in unit cell), the PREFIX.save<br>
will be several GBs<br>

if you have a parallel file system (i.e. one that is visible to all processors), it<br>
might be sufficient to create symlinks. I don't know how this stuff is working<br>
now: just guessing<br>
