Hi all. I'm working on some CCSD(T) calculations of CO2 dimers using aug-cc-pvqz basis sets. I realize that this is a very large job. I've run a few calculations previously using molpro (on XSEDE Blacklight), which (I don't have my notes on me, but if I recall correctly) took about 20 hours on 16 cores, and required ~256GB memory.

I would like to try running these jobs on NWChem instead, but I'm having problems with 1) tweaking the performance options and 2) my jobs are dying due to a file writing error.

First, here is my input file. I've not included the basis set specification, as it's a long copy/paste from BSEL

I'm running the jobs on XSEDE trestles, on 8 cores (mpirun_rsh) over 2 nodes (64GB mem/node) using environmental variable ARMCI_DEFAULT_SHMMAX=2048. I've also tried running without the variable set, but with the same results.

So now the results. The job runs for a while, and generates ~150GB of temp files before dying. I've pasted the relevant output below.
