Hi everyone,

I am currently running a series of large scale parallel abinit calculations
that require reading in either the wavefunction file or the density file from
the previous step.  In order to cut down on input-output communication, I have
each node writing to a local hard drive and I have set up prtwf 0 so that the
wavefunction is not written out.  The wavefunction files were getting too 
large
to handle.

The local directories are not visible on the other nodes.  In the past, I was
able to push the wavefunction file from one node to all the others using
localrdwf 0.  I would like to read in the density file and push it out to the
other nodes using a similar process.  Is this possible with Abinit?  If not,
could someone direct me to the best place to implement this in the code?

Thanks,

Derek
