Non-Collinear Execution Problem on Vasp 5.2

Posted: Tue Apr 27, 2010 7:27 pm
by enlvamp
Dear Friends from Vasp forum, as well know to you all, to make a vasp 4.6 or older version non-collinear calculation was just necessary to take out the option -DNGXhalf , if it were to be run in serial mode, or take out the option -DNGZhalf for parallel mode in CPP line.
Unfortunately on vasp 5.2 we havent been able ro run the executable. it starts but after a few seconds stops without a clear reason. The Makefile were using works very good, and it's based on the 4.6 makefile which we've been using for years.
Has anyone come to this problem ? if so, how was it resolved ?
Thanks in advance .
Im attaching the makefile

 .SUFFIXES: .inc .f .f90 .F
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Makefile for Intel Fortran compiler for Pentium/Athlon/Opteron 
# bases systems
# we recommend this makefile for both Intel as well as AMD systems
# for AMD based systems appropriate BLAS and fftw libraries are
# however mandatory (whereas they are optional for Intel platforms)
#
# The makefile was tested only under Linux on Intel and AMD platforms
# the following compiler versions have been tested:
#  - ifc.7.1  works stable somewhat slow but reliably
#  - ifc.8.1  fails to compile the code properly
#  - ifc.9.1  recommended (both for 32 and 64 bit)
#  - ifc.10.1 partially recommended (both for 32 and 64 bit)
#             tested build 20080312 Package ID: l_fc_p_10.1.015
#             the gamma only mpi version can not be compiles
#             using ifc.10.1
#
# it might be required to change some of library pathes, since
# LINUX installation vary a lot
# Hence check ***ALL*** options in this makefile very carefully
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# BLAS must be installed on the machine
# there are several options:
# 1) very slow but works:
#   retrieve the lapackage from ftp.netlib.org
#   and compile the blas routines (BLAS/SRC directory)
#   please use g77 or f77 for the compilation. When I tried to
#   use pgf77 or pgf90 for BLAS, VASP hang up when calling
#   ZHEEV  (however this was with lapack 1.1 now I use lapack 2.0)
# 2) more desirable: get an optimized BLAS 
#
# the two most reliable packages around are presently:
# 2a) Intels own optimised BLAS (PIII, P4, PD, PC2, Itanium)
#     http://developer.intel.com/software/products/mkl/
#   this is really excellent, if you use Intel CPU's
#
# 2b) probably fastest SSE2 (4 GFlops on P4, 2.53 GHz, 16 GFlops PD, 
#     around 30 GFlops on Quad core)

Non-Collinear Execution Problem on Vasp 5.2

Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2010 2:30 pm

if there are no useful hints on why the job crashed, please check whether you may have memory or stack size problems:
1) run a very small cell with non-collinear setup just to test (eg 2 Fe atoms,...) if that works, the executable itself is ok, then, next
2) please check if ulimit -s returns unlimited as output. If it does not, please add the line
ulimit -s unlimited
in the .bashrc file (or the rc file of the sehll you use)

Thanks for your reply Head admin, but unfortunately we didn't got sucess [:(]
I found out thats a matter of memory problem and maybe something else because if i reduce the number of plane waves considerably it works, and by the way, do you know whats the mining of the option -DMPI_BLOCK in cpp line ?

alternatively, you can also increase the number of parallel processors on which you run the job, the memory is distributed over the nodes.

Unfortunately it's not working, dont know what to do, i re-did all the stuff again downloaded the open libs (lapack, blacs, blas, scalapack) to check if the problem was with my mkl , compiled all the libs apart and them changed the makefile and it compiled but didn't run.
