Isn't it? But I did not get that, and so I switeched off all "starting_ns_eigenvalue" to be sure if they affect the result, but did not succeed.</div>

<div>Dear Mahmoud </div>
<div> </div>
<div>the occupations are written on disk at the end of the self-consistent cycle of a DFT+U calculation (you need a finite U at least).</div>
<div>if you restart a DFT+U calculation from a previous one, reading the potential that was saved,</div>
<div>the code will automatically read also the occupations. I don't think you can read only the occupations at the moment, although it would not be hard to implement.</div>
