LAMMPS Apparently cannot open restart file

50 Views Asked by At

My Molecular Dynamics Simulation (93 Mio. particles) fails after approx. 222900 timesteps with the ERROR 'Cannot open restart file 'filename' (.../write_restart.cpp:272). According to the LAMMPS documentation this error is self-explanatory, but I do not understand why this occurs after so many timesteps. I write out these .restart-files every 1000 timesteps, toggling between two filenames and apparently this stops working.

I use LAMMMPS version 3Mar20 on a Linux Cluster, parallelized on 960 cores.

I did test the script in a scaled down scenario (all dimensions reduced). For this, everything worked just as expected.
