[Pw_forum] Restart phonon calculation from failed recovery file?

[Paolo Giannozzi]

What you are asking is far from easy. It should be possible
to manually edit one of the restart files and force the system
to recalculate the mode that went missing, but it might take 
more time to figure out how to do this in a proper way than 
to redo everything from scratch
