Dear abinit users:

    Unfortunately, my worry become true, and the phonon calculation can not be performed without complete WFK files, because the message size exceeds P4s maximum message size. 
I think this is because the system I calculate is too large, and try to use PAW method to reduce the ecut demand. Can I use PAW method to perform phonon calculations? or how to get through 
the earlier mentioned message size error? Thanks!

Regards

Dear abinit users:

I met with following error messages at the end of my optimization run:
========================================
 outwf  : write wavefunction to file opto_WFK
-P-0000  leave_test : synchronization done...
p0_10057:  p4_error: alloc_p4_msg: Message size exceeds P4s maximum message size: 293528064
p0_10057: (265869.218750) net_send: could not write to fd=4, errno = 32
========================================
It seems that my task is too large that the message size exceeds the system limit, and then I can not get a complete WFK file. Since the next I'll do phonon calculations of it, I'm afraid that this will cause the failure of whole task, because the phonon calculations require precise  WFK file. How to deal with such a problem? Thanks!
