[Pw_forum] Error in restarting a ph.x job

[Hongze Xia]

Dear qe users,

Recently my ph.x job was interrupted by another workstation user who
occupied the whole disk space causing ph.x not able to write files to disk.
When I tried to resume it from the last run. The error occurred:

#################################################################################
# FROM IOTK LIBRARY, VERSION 1.2.0
# UNRECOVERABLE ERROR (ierr=1)
# ERROR IN: iotk_getline (iotk_scan.f90:947)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD
with errorcode 1.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
mpirun has exited due to process rank 0 with PID 2898 on
node HotCarrier-Z820 exiting improperly. There are two reasons this could
occur:

1. this process did not call "init" before exiting, but others in
the job did. This can cause a job to hang indefinitely while it waits
for all processes to call "init". By rule, if one process calls "init",
then ALL processes must call "init" prior to termination.

2. this process called "init", but exited without calling "finalize".
By rule, all processes that call "init" MUST call "finalize" prior to
exiting or it will be considered an "abnormal termination"

This may have caused other processes in the application to be
terminated by signals sent by mpirun (as reported here).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[1]+  Exit 1                  mpirun -np 8 ph.x < SnS62.ph.in >
SnS62.ph.out2

Any idea that can help me resume the job which has been running for weeks?
I will cry for a day if I need to start it from scratch. I will appreciate
any suggestion. Thanks a lot.
