[Pw_forum] pools not implemented - follow up

Hi,

Just following up on my previous question.  I did the run without 
-npools.  Turned out I did not get the CRASH file right away as was the 
previous case, but I did not wait for the runs (which happens for 
*.bands.in) because it was taking "awfully" long.  Can't afford to leave 
a test job running in my name on a borrowed computing resource.

Any ideas/suggestions will be appreciated.  I would need to utilize the 
bands calculations in actual run so, I can't ignore this. Please, see 
the original post below.
Thank you.
John



 > hi all!

I compiled qe v. 3.2.3 and decided to do something I usually don't do 
(sorry, I should have been doing it, depending on how one looks at it 
...).  I run the examples! In example01, I had a crash report on 
"cu.bands.in".  Here's the output:

Program POST-PROC v.3.2.3  starts ...

   Number of processors in use:       2
   K-points division:     npool     =    2

 > My question is where's this coming from?  I noticed that this example 
is not in the previous release (3.1) and there are no problems with any 
of the examples I run from the earlier version. Other examples run 
smoothly. Hmmm ... just thought I should take out -npools passed to 
mpirun.  I will report the results soon.

Thanks,
John
