Hi Can,

on which Linux distribution are you running OPAL? Do you have root access to this system and can you install packages? I can build a OPAL binary for your Linux distribution.

Best,

Achim

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your reply.

All right I totally misunderstood the usage of REPARTFREQ then.

Please find attached zip file including everything.

Best,

Can

Dear OPAL Users,

I would like to use the inbuilt multi-objective optimisation of OPAL but I
have encountered a couple of issues and kindly ask for your help.

- Although I define OPTION, REPARTFREQ = 14; to use 14 cores of my PC it
doesn't allow me to use more than 10 which is the default according to the
manual.

The REPARTFREQ has nothing to do with the number of cores. So I am confused

what you are writing here!

- .tmpl and .in files are working if only I use INITIALPOPULATION=1 but
optimisation doesn't end once it is >1. .tmpl commands are given below.

Please send us a reproducer, otherwise it is not possible to track down the problem you

have.

Thanks Andy
