Dear Lorenzo,<br><br>It seems we can use 'disk_io' to do that. I am trying, we will see. <br><br>Regards,<br><br>Mithra Chan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/10/18 Mithra Chan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:chan.mithra@gmail.com">chan.mithra@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

I think that would not work. Because the job is distributed randomly, I do not know which node it will lated at. I tried by setting outdir='./' and coy the INPUT file to $TMP then run it locally. In this case it write files locally, but I got an error which says "from davcio : error # 10 error while writing to file". <br>

Dear Mithra,<br>
by default, QE should use the current directory as temporary space.<br>
However, you can control this behavior busing the keyword<br>
outdir="/whatever/directory" in the &control namelist (check the manual<br>
Doc/INPUT_PW.txt !!!).<br>
<div><br>
> INDIR=`pwd`<br>
> echo $TMP > $INDIR/tmpdir<br>
> cd $TMP<br>
<br>
</div>This should work, but if $TMP is empty, than it will just use the home<br>
directory!<br>
<br>
> cp $TMP/* .<br>
<br>
are you sure copying everything to the home directory is not stalling the<br>
network?<br>
<br>
best regards<br>
<br>
<br>
