The first q-point appears to be calculated correctly, but the code crashes when attempting to start calculating the second q-point. A file "charge-density" is said to be missing but "charge-density.dat" exists when I manually inspect the files. As there are 16 reports that the file cannot be found, I am assuming that this is an issue with me using multiple nodes (each node has 16 cores). A general description of my computing environment and workflow follows:<br>

I also have access to a gpfs networked drive that both nodes can access. To improve performance, I am attempting to perform all calculations using the local scratch drives. All input files are copied from the gpfs networked drive to the local drive on each node before the initial pw.x calculation. After the pw.x calculation, a small script copies the output files (pwscf.save folder and pwscf.xml) from the first node to the networked drive and then a second script copies them from the networked drive to the second node before starting the phonon code.<br>
