NWRITE
NWRITE = 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4
Default: NWRITE = 2
Description: This tag determines how much will be written to the file OUTCAR ('verbosity tag').
The options for NWRITE are given in detail as
NWRITE 0 1 2 3 contributions to electronic energy at each electronic iteration f f e e convergence information f f e e eigenvalues f+l i i e DOS + charge density f+l i i e total energy and electronic contributions i i i i stress i i i i basis vectors f+l i i i forces f+l i i i lattice and space group information for ISYM>0 f f f f symmetry operations for ISYM>0 f timing information X X
where the following abbreviations have been used
f+l first and last ionic step f first ionic step i each ionic step e each electronic step X when applicable
| Tip: For long molecular-dynamics runs, use NWRITE=0 or NWRITE=1. For short runs use NWRITE=2. NWRITE=3 might give information if something goes wrong. |
NWRITE=4 is for debugging only.
