Dear Abinit users,
    I have a question about a response function calculation at Gamma point 
needing long time. Because of the time limit of server, I can't finish the 
calculation in the time limit. It seem that Abinit can't restart the electric 
field perturbation and phonons calculation. So, I have to seperate the 
calculation into several parts. For example, if I have 40 atoms to perturb, I 
want to  separate them into 4 parts, like
rfatpol   1 10 
rfatpol   11 20
rfatpol   21 30
rfatpol   31 40

and perform 4 runs, than merge the 4 DDB files with MRGDDB. Is it right way 
to get a complete dynamical matrix? Thanks in advance.

Best regard,
Z.Qi
