Dear Luis,
Have you made progress in therms of pseudo potentials for the b97m-v
functional?
It would be interesting if Prof. Hutter's suggestion of PBE pseudos works
for b97m-v as well.
Otherwise for rev-vdW-DF2, Callsen and Hamanda have shown in Phys Rev B 91,
195103 (2015), that PBE PAW potentials were sufficient.
Best,
Janos
