[CP2K-user] [CP2K:11285] About energy change for the AIMD equlibration process

Hi, Matthias,

Thanks a lot. I am running classical MD for water cluster pre-equilibration 
with flexible TIP3P force field and then run AIMD according to the related 
literature for validation of the correct installation of CP2K, so we will 
see that later. Is there a faster way to make sure the installation is ok? 
I have ran the recommended Regression Testing and most of them are correct 
(2709 out of 2734 tests for CP2K 7.0), is this result enough to prove that 
the installation is ok? Thanks.
