Dear QE users
I am working on improving properties of doped metal oxides. Installation of
QE-GPU-5.4.0 was done without any errors then I am trying to optimize my
structure (CeO2). After successfully submission of my calculations, either
I am reaching to a stage with *oscillations of total energy *OR calculation
automatically *stops without any error**.* I thought of it's because of BAD
input parameters, so I changed so many parameters as suggested by so many
users in pw_forum like mixing_bata, mixing_dim, smearing, dgauss and based
on exchange correlation functional (NCPP, USPP) I changed ecutwfc and
ecutrho also, but NO use.
After through search, I got a similar previous reported problem (it's very
old): http://qe-forge.org/pipermail/pw_forum/2009-March/086558.html
Same above input file (mine) I tried in 4 processor CPU (desktop) installed
QE-5.4.0. Calculation achieved convergence smoothly.
In the previous thread (link) Prof. Paolo Giannozzi told that it's because
of intel compilers problem and solution for this was linking of local blas.
This I didn't understand, can you explain in elaborated way? These are my
server details
linux: *centOS*
Server: *FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX2540 M2*
GPU card:
*NVIDIA Tesla K40 (2 number)*
*intel 2017.1.132 for both mpi and mkl libraries*
*CUDA-8.0.44*
P.S: Input file attached
Thank You
