[Pw_forum] run PWscf on national grid service in UK

[Pieremanuele Canepa]

Dear All,
I am writing to you since  I'm attempting to run PWscf jobs on the NGS
(national grid service http://www.grid-support.ac.uk/) provide here in UK
without any good result. Under the help of  one person in charge of the ngs
I was able to compile PWscf (release 4.0.5) on it. This grid use particular
and non free mpi called Platform-mpi (
http://www.scali.com/Products/platform-mpi). Then,  I compiled espresso
using Intel FORTRAN and C compiler and these mpi libraries.
Now when I try to run a job on the grid, what  I get out is reported as
below:

 Program PWSCF     v.4.0.5  starts ...
     Today is 14May2009 at  9:23: 5

     Parallel version (MPI)

     Number of processors in use:       8
     R & G space division:  proc/pool =    8

     For Norm-Conserving or Ultrasoft (Vanderbilt) Pseudopotentials or PAW

     Current dimensions of program pwscf are:
     Max number of different atomic species (ntypx) = 10
     Max number of k-points (npk) =  40000
     Max angular momentum in pseudopotentials (lmaxx) =  3

Initially, I thought  it was related to my input and I tried to run it on my
normal cluster PC, that use OpenMPI, and it seems to work as normally it
should be. What I am suppose to do? Do you have any suggestion? Anyone do
you know how to manage it ?

Best Regards, Piero
