Too many sub-directories
Posted: Thu Jan 21, 2010 10:14 am
Hello,
I installed yambo version 3.2.1 revision 448 under linux with ext3 file system.
It works fine and yambo passed all tests.
However, the ext3 file system has a limit on the number of sub-directories.
The limit is about 32000 sub-directories. When I perform the BSE calculation for GaN with
hexagonal cell with many k-point, this limit can be exceeded.
My questions are following:
1. Is it possible to avoid creation of so many sub-directiories in SAVE directory?
2. What kind of file system do you use for yambo?
3. What do you suggest?
Best regards,
