VASP calculation error

#1 Post by pro_junjie » Wed Nov 16, 2011 7:05 pm

I'm using VASP 5.2 now.
There are 8 cups each node on our claster.

When I submit a job with 8 or less cpus, VASP alwarys works well. But there is always a error when I try to use more cpus. Following is the error.

LDA part: xc-table for Pade appr. of Perdew
POSCAR, INCAR and KPOINTS ok, starting setup
WARNING: small aliasing (wrap around) errors must be expected
FFT: planning ...( 2 )
WAVECAR not read
rank 21 in job 1 cl1n007_57708 caused collective abort of all ranks
exit status of rank 21: killed by signal 9
rank 29 in job 1 cl1n007_57708 caused collective abort of all ranks
exit status of rank 29: killed by signal 9


Any suggestions will be appreciated!

this error is not related to vasp but seems to be a communication error between the nodes on your cluster
