Dear all,
I tried to run a phonon calculation. When launching the ph.x program (after successfully
completing the previous steps) I obtain the following output:
.............(start of output) .........
Program PHONON v.2.0 starts ...

(TITLE from input file)
crystal is
bravais-lattice index = 12
lattice parameter (a_0) = 10.2030 a.u.

..................(ouput continues further)...............
The subsequent operation seems to go ahead without errors. Can someone tell me if these
warning messages on occupation numbers imply that the calculation will not give good phonon
results?
