This means that the calculation cannot proceeds further because, I 
guess, the required threshold is below the noise level of the energy and 
forces you compute.
In order to reduce the noise you could increase the scf threshold and/or 
increase the ecutrho to improve the accuracy of XC energy calculation.
Are you sure the  your relaxation  has not already  converged ?
