[QE-users] Relax calculation stops working without any error or CRASH file

Hello.

I am trying to run a relax calculation for the adsorption of hydrogen over
Nickel-calcium carbonate with hydrogen placed over one of the adsorption
sites (Nickel). However, my calculation stops after around 3 hours without
generating any error in the slurm file and also no Crash file is generated.
I am running the job on 8 nodes with 64 tasks per node and mem=0.
I have attached the input file with the mail.
The last few lines of the output file is:

"Self-consistent Calculation

lives

------------------"

Then the calculation stops automatically.

Kindly let me know how to solve this problem. Thank you.
