Hi.
I am trying to run nscf calculation of InAs monolayer slab but it is
showing that "
     Error in routine c_bands (1):
     too many bands are not converged"
Here is my input file for nscf
&CONTROL
    calculation  = "nscf"
    max_seconds  =  8.64000e+04
    prefix       = 'InAs.fixed.mono',

    outdir       = '/home/abinitio/output/',
    restart_mode = "from_scratch"
