Hi Matt,

I am trying to optimize MoS2 unit-cell of 3 atoms. Here is the input file:
&GLOBAL
  PROJECT HER
  RUN_TYPE GEO_OPT
  PRINT_LEVEL LOW
&END GLOBAL
!
&MOTION
  &GEO_OPT

    MAX_ITER 200
    OPTIMIZER CG
  &END GEO_OPT
&END MOTION
!
&FORCE_EVAL
  METHOD QS
  &DFT

    &QS
      EPS_DEFAULT 1.0E-10
    &END QS

Kindly suggest!
Thankyou
