[QE-users] Running efficiently on multiple nodes

Tamas,

I will check the disk space, but this exact input file will work when running on only one node.  Then it crashes when running on 2 nodes.  My suspicion is that there is some issue with information being stored correctly across multiple nodes that I don't understand.

Dear Brad,
Your missing CRASH file remembers me when I made QE eat up all disk
space on the disk used to be used.
End of logs and a lot more were missing, only "df ." gave me the hint.
So the naive question raises: is it not your case, too?
