[Pw_forum] Parallel version and NFS

[Huiqun Zhou]

Sergey,

It seems you are doing a "from scratch" SCF calculation while setting
restart_mode='restart'. If this is your case, you definitly need to set
restart_mode='from_scratch'. Using restart means you have already
a successful previous run and you want to continue the run from there
this time.
